"Journal of a Residence in America" by Fanny Kemble is a personal travel journal written in the early 19th century. This work documents the author's experiences and reflections during her time in the United States. Kemble, a British actress, provides insightful observations on American life, society, and cultural contrasts with her native England as she travels aboard the ship Pacific." "At the start of the journal, Kemble describes her emotions while leaving England and boarding the ship, detailing her initial impressions of the journey across the Atlantic. She writes about the passengers aboard the ship, including fellow English travelers and a few Americans, capturing their interactions, reflections on homesickness, and experiences at sea. Her observations are colored by her literary sensibilities, revealing her longing for England and her excitement about encountering a new world, setting the stage for her explorations and reflections on American culture."
