A journey through time and terrain, Across America opens a window on a young republic in motion-and invites you to walk beside it. A memoir of roads charted and rivers crossed, Rusling's keen eye turns the American landscape into a living, unruly classroom. This is more than travel writing; it's a frontier travelogue memoir that tracks westward expansion, coastal exploration, and the daily drama of colonial era life. The voice is lucid and humane, balancing vivid scenes with thoughtful reflection, offering both a historical panorama and the intimate rhythms of a traveller's days. Readers will ...
A journey through time and terrain, Across America opens a window on a young republic in motion-and invites you to walk beside it. A memoir of roads charted and rivers crossed, Rusling's keen eye turns the American landscape into a living, unruly classroom. This is more than travel writing; it's a frontier travelogue memoir that tracks westward expansion, coastal exploration, and the daily drama of colonial era life. The voice is lucid and humane, balancing vivid scenes with thoughtful reflection, offering both a historical panorama and the intimate rhythms of a traveller's days. Readers will find a clear, inspiring account that translates nineteenth century ambitions into a human story, one that resonates with today's public library collections and history enthusiast readers alike. Across America retains its literary and historical significance as a reliable, on-the-ground record of a restless nation. It stands as a touchstone for fans of the american travel writing tradition, a prime example of the kind of frontier life description now cherished by collectors and casual readers alike. This is a work for the travel-writing classics collection, for those who relish genuine voice and carefully observed detail. Out of print for decades and now republished by Alpha Editions. Restored for today's and future generations. More than a reprint - a collector's item and a cultural treasure, and a testament to late nineteenth century american travelogues and the enduring allure of the american west coast.
