Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book is an assembly of letters written from 1858-1859 by the fictional character Rear Admiral Mohammed Pasha. In these letters, Pasha shares his observations and opinions on American society and culture, which he finds notably different from his own. One clear difference is in the role of women in America, whom he initially sees as far more independent and outspoken than the women of Turkey, but develops a different opinion over time. This book provides an interesting glimpse into American life and attitudes in the mid-19th century from the perspective of an outsider. The author uses themes of satire and humor to provide a fresh and insightful perspective on topics such as immigration, politics, the media, and women's rights. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9781331485902_0
