Abroad at Home: American Ramblings, Observations, and Adventures, published in 1914 by the American humorist Julian Street, records a journey from New York across the Midwest and West to San Francisco. With an outsider's eye for his own country, Street describes Buffalo and Cleveland, the automobile city of Detroit, Battle Creek and Kalamazoo, Chicago's department stores, stockyards and ward bosses, St. Louis and Mark Twain's Hannibal, Kansas City and Kansas journalism, Colorado Springs and the mining town of Cripple Creek, Salt Lake City and the Mormons, and finally San Francisco and its exposition. The tone is breezy, observant and good-humored. The full text is available to read online in your browser on Vinteuil, and the first chapter is free.
