Summary: "Dr. Stearns's Tour from London to Paris" by Samuel Stearns is a historical account written in the late 18th century. The book chronicles the author's journey from London to Paris amidst the backdrop of the French Revolution, providing insights into the Customs, manners, and politics of France during this tumultuous period. Through Stearns's eyes, readers explore both the societal transformation occurring in France and the personal reflections of a philosopher grappling with the nature of change and liberty. The opening of the narrative describes Stearns's enthusiasm for visiting Paris, especially during the momentous occasion of the king's coronation under a new constitution. After detailing his travel arrangements and experiences at various inns along the way, he observes the changing social landscape in France upon his arrival in Calais, noting the vibrant spirit of the French people and the insistent presence of beggars. He also shares humorous anecdotes related to French customs and national practices, establishing a tone of curiosity and reflection that sets the stage for the deeper explorations of societal norms, philosophical musings, and critical observations on human behavior that will follow in the book.
