Contents Notes |
In 1843 Margaret Fuller, already a well-established figure in the Transcendental circle of Emerson and Thoreau, traveled by train, steamboat, carriage, and on foot to make a roughly circular tour of the Great Lakes. Her trip yielded a fascinating portrait of life in Chicago and other lakeside communities in Illinois and the Wisconsin territory. |
