Excerpt from The Great Republic
Some portions of this little book have already appeared in the Fortnightly Review, and are here reproduced with the consent and, indeed, at the suggestion of the editor. My criticisms of various American characteristics attracted much attention in the United States, and a mass of hostile comment in the shape of verses and newspaper articles. I would, then, at the threshold of this book, hasten to assure Americans that it is written in no unfriendly spirit to them. If what I have said be distasteful to them, I am sorry for it, for I have had no intention to wound.
