This vintage book contains a collection of letters written by an American farmer on Nantucket island, Massachusetts in the late eighteenth century. Within the letters, the author describes to a friend in England his life as a farmer, while also explaining the manners and customs of the local inhabitants. "Letters from an American Farmer" offers an authentic insight into colonial American life and is not to be missed by those with an interest in this fascinating chapter of history. Contents include: "Letter II - Introduction", "Letter II - On the Situation, Feelings, and Pleasures, of an American Farmer", "Letter III - What is an American", "Letter IIII - Description of the Islands of Nantucket, with the Manners, Customs, and Policy, and Trade of the Inhabitants", "Letter V - Customary Education and Employment of the Inhabitants of Nantucket", etc. Many vintage books such as this are increasingly scarce and expensive. It is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with a specially-commissioned new introduction on farming.
