Lebhafte u. ausführliche Reiseschilderungen von Max O'Rell (eigentlich Léon Paul Blouet, 1847-1903), der über seine langjährigen Erfahrungen in England das sehr erfolgreiche Buch "John Bull es son île" verfasst hatte. In der Folge schrieb er weitere einschlägige Titel über seine Beobachtungen, hier über die USA. Zum Mitautor bemerkt er am Anfang "Um mir meine Rechte in den Vereinigten Staaten zu sichern, habe ich mir einen amerikanischen Bürger als Mitarbeiter zugesellt".
