Despite the author's European inspirations, it is a distinctively American book, not just because of its homespun, native characters and slapstick humor, but also because it is a narrative of journeying and questing. As it follows Captain Farrago and his sidekick on their travels, the book's premise becomes clear-that democracy as practiced in America is valuable and worthy, but that it is subject to malfunctions when tinkered with by unfit men.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Hugh Henry Brackenridge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0742534030\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780742534032\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Rowman \u0026amp; Littlefield Publishers\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/22\/2003\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 335\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.99lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.58h x 5.54w x 1.02d","brand":"Hugh Henry Brackenridge","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44059609465087,"sku":"9780742534032","price":62.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_0113aa58-7d5c-4b4f-9970-d3dc8d8d4281.jpg?v=1685059263","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/modern-chivalry-hugh-henry-brackenridge-9780742534032","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
