Excerpt from Journal of a Tour and Residence in Great Britain, Vol. 1: During the Years 1810 and 1811 This Journal was originally written in English, nearly as it now appears; but being intended chiefly for the benefit of my countrymen, it was fully prepared for publication in French; when it was suggested to me, that, as it could not at that time have been printed on the Continent, if it had any success at all in this country, it would be translated immediately, and, in all likelihood, very wretchedly, and that I had better undertake the task myself, having, in fact, the materials ready.
