Home As Found
Overview
Home As Found is a novel written by James Fenimore Cooper. The story is set in New York City during the 1830s. The main character, John Effingham, returns to America after living in Europe for many years. He is disappointed by the changes he finds in his country, including the growing commercialism and lack of respect for tradition. He becomes involved in a debate with his friends and other characters about what it means to be American and how the country should develop. Along the way, there are love interests, political conflicts, and glimpses of life in the early 19th century. The novel is a commentary on American society and culture at the time, and Cooper's views on patriotism, democracy, and the role of the individual in society are prominent themes throughout the book.Sequel to ""Homeward Bound.""This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
