Aristocracy in America, Vol. 1 of 2 by Francis J. Grund Pdf
Excerpt from Aristocracy in America, Vol. 1 of 2: From the Sketch-Book of a German Nobleman A people like yourselves, great, powerful, and magnanimous, is as much beyond the reach of personal satire as it is proof against the weapons of its foes: not so the men who, claiming for themselves a specific distinction, cannot properly be considered as identified with your principles and character. Against these then, and against these alone, is the following work - of which I am but the Editor - directed, in the hope of thereby rendering a service to the Public, which, both in the capacity of a writer and a citizen of the United States, I readily acknowledge as my Lord and Sovereign.
