The American in Europe: being “guesses” and “calculations” on men and manners; made during a tour through the most important portions of Europe. [With plates
A travel account of a European tour published in London in 1850 under the name Henry Clay Crockett, addressed to American readers curious about continental men and manners. The 128 steel-engraved plates are topographical views — cathedral squares, bridges crowded with carts and figures, and hillside panoramas over river cities — with fine tonal skies and small-scale street life useful as stock architectural backdrops and figure groups.
