Cathedrals, continental towns and the street life of Paris fill prints from The American in Europe, Henry Clay Crockett's work published by the London Printing and Publishing Company in London and New York, here in the 1856 issue. The views travel through France, Belgium, Germany, Switzerland and Italy, setting St Peter's in Rome, Cologne Cathedral and the palaces of Genoa beside Belgian market places, German castles and Swiss churches. Paris is given fuller treatment, with the Luxembourg, the Invalides, Père Lachaise and the Champs-Élysées, ragpickers and other street figures, and carriages and travelling scenes show the journey itself.
