An Outlander In England - Being Some Impressions Of An Australian Abroad
By J.H.M. Abbott
Published by Methuen & Co: London 1905 1st Edition

"An Outlander in England: Being Some Impressions of an Australian Abroad" is a 1905 travelogue by Australian author J.H.M. Abbott. In this work, Abbott documents his observations and experiences during his time in England, offering a unique perspective shaped by his Australian background. The book provides insights into English society, culture, and landscapes as seen through the eyes of an Australian visitor.​

Abbott's narrative encompasses various aspects of English life, including its customs, traditions, and social dynamics. His reflections serve as a comparative analysis between Australian and English ways of life, highlighting both the similarities and differences he encountered. Through detailed descriptions and personal anecdotes, Abbott offers readers an engaging account of England from the standpoint of an "outlander," or outsider, providing valuable historical context and cultural commentary from the early 20th century."
