| Summary | "Recollections of Europe" by James Fenimore Cooper is a travel narrative written in the early 19th century. The book details the author’s experiences and observations as he embarks on a journey across Europe, particularly focusing on England and France. Through a series of letters, Cooper shares his reflections on various aspects of European society, culture, and geography, showcasing his perspective as an American travelling abroad. The opening of the book introduces the author’s travel preparations and the emotional leave-taking from his home in New York as he embarks on a ship bound for Europe. He recounts the excitement and trepidation of the journey, detailing the picturesque scenery of the Hudson River, the calmness of the waters, and his experiences aboard the ship, including interactions with fellow passengers and the ship’s crew. Cooper’s writing conveys a sense of nostalgia and anticipation for the new experiences that await him, as he begins to reflect on the contrasts between his American origins and the European landscape he is about to explore.
