	American Notes by Charles Dickens. Search, Read, Study, Discuss.
		American Notes was written soon after Dickens had returned from his, first visit to America.
		The American Notes are, however, interesting, because in them he betrays his feelings when he does not know that he is betraying them.
		It is curious to note the contrast between the cheery, nay Cockney, contempt with which Dickens speaks of the American Indian and that chivalrous and pathetic essay in which Washington Irving celebrates the virtues of the vanishing race.

		During this period in American literature, the impulse for a cultural and intellectual independence is finally realized.

		This earliest surviving American animated film--in the strict sense of single exposures of drawings simulating movement--uses chalkboard sketches and then cut-outs to simplify the process.
