Six Months in the Federal States
Description
“Edward Dicey was an English author and journalist, on his trip to America he was the special correspondent of MACMILLAN'S MAGAZINE and the SPECTATOR. Portions of his American account appeared in the pages of these periodicals before being published with additions in book form. He was a good observer, but his characteristic English dislike of slavery colored his observations. He spent most of his time in the North, by steamer on Ohio to Louisville, continuing as far south as Nashville and dipping into Missouri to see St. Louis. The account is valuable for his comments on that part of the South which lay within the Federal lines. Wherever he saw slavery he saw dirt and decay, and only in St. Louis, where there was less slavery, did he see much to commend.”
