But what followed was a tragicomedy of illness, scandal and failed business ventures. Nevertheless, on her return to England Fanny turned her misfortunes into a remarkable book. A masterpiece of nineteenth-century travel-writing, Domestic Manners of the Americans is a vivid and hugely witty satirical account of a nation and was a sensation on both sides of the Atlantic.Acknowledgements\u003cbr\u003eIntroduction\u003cbr\u003eSelected Further Reading\u003cbr\u003eNote on the Text\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eDOMESTIC MANNERS OF THE AMERICANS\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAppendix A: Unpublished Preface from the Rough Draft of \u003ci\u003eDomestic Manners of the Americans\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAppendix B: Preface to the Fifth Edition of \u003ci\u003eDomestic Manners of the Americans\u003c\/i\u003e (1839)\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAppendix C: 'A Fragment' Appended to the Fifth Edition\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNotes\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003ePAMELA NEVILLE-SINGTON lives in West London.
