"Volney was an educated Frenchman of some distinction and merit . . . When he came to America he was an experienced traveler and anticlericalist and an opponent of the philosophy of Rousseau. His departure from his native land was no doubt determined upon when the government he hoped to serve threw him in prison. . . This work is not a narrative of travel. The author described in some detail the geography of the United States noting topography soil climate winds and diseases" Clark.
