Impressions of German travellers of London and England at the time of the American Revolution, Napoleon, and Jane Austen (1771-1821)give an answer. These foreigners took note of customs and habits, the English hardly considered worth mentioning. Why are the ladies in the village so upset about Elizabeth Bennett's habit to walk for miles ? How was this seen in 1810's England ? How much did the war with Napoleon changed daily life ? When the American Nation was formed, how did the other half in the former motherland continue ?
