Synopsis "Discovering American History in England: An Illustrated Traveler's Guide"
Many of America's most notable citizens have spent substantial amounts of time in England, and yet the traces of their lives are widely overlooked by travellers. Author and historian Catherine Leitch, an American who has lived in England for 12 years, has compiled anecdotes, maps and descriptions of the often-surprising connections between English and American culture. This brand new book opens with an historical overview of England and America, before presenting chapters which cover Colonial Settlers in the New World, the birth of American Independence, military connections, politicians, American ladies in England, artists, musicians, poets and writers. Each section contains illustrated entries for key people, together with a list of places connected to the person that can be visited. These places are listed in the Gazetteer of London and England which follows. Special "side-bars" also feature information on major buildings and cities with notable connections to America.
