"Zwei Jahre in New-York" by Christoph Vetter is a travel narrative written in the mid-19th century. The book provides an account of a sea voyage from Havre to New York, coupled with insights into the political and social life of New York City as experienced by the author. The narrative likely focuses on the challenges faced by immigrants and offers a perspective on both the excitement and difficulties associated with settling in a new country. The opening of the narrative depicts the author's journey as he embarks from Havre. Vetter describes his arrival in the bustling port, highlighting the struggles of fellow emigrants who remain stranded after exhausting their resources. He reflects on the desperation of some, the frivolity of others, and the prevailing sense of uncertainty among the new arrivals. As he guides us through his experiences, Vetter emphasizes the warnings given to travelers about the perils of unscrupulous agents and the complexities of immigrant life, setting the tone for a tale rich with both caution and observation as he navigates through this new chapter of his life.
