Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book is a collection of travelogues and social commentary from the perspective of a charismatic American, Elijer Goff. Born in England, Elijer emigrated to America only to find himself caught up in the dramatic events of the westward expansion of the mid-nineteenth century. Elijer's adventures provide a unique lens through which to view how America's pioneering spirit and relentless optimism shaped the destiny of a nation. Beyond their historical importance, Elijer's writings offer a witty and often absurd perspective on the human condition. The author's misadventures in love and business, his brushes with the law, and his struggle to maintain his sanity in a chaotic, rapidly changing world, all make for a richly entertaining read. Through the author's travels, we gain insights into the many contradictions inherent to the American character during a period of profound transformation.
