Description
Martineau's acute observations of American democracy, character, and social structure anticipate modern sociology while revealing the contradictions between American ideals and practices she witnessed firsthand. Her perspective as a British woman observer gives her the distance to notice what Americans took for granted, making her critique both affectionate and devastating.
