O knihe
Excerpt from The Dark City: Or Customs of the Cockneys
Anybody can tell that by the rigid way in which the custom-house officials go through his trunks when he arrives.
One good square experience of the English cus toms' service usually satisfies any American with the Way we do things in New York.
The ordinary free and enlightened citizen of the United States generally raves in sorrow and in anger after he has passed through the Barge Office, but he gains a meek and lowly admiration for even that concern when he has once tackled the Liverpool examination-bureau. He goes to England prepared to pass along unchallenged, because he has heard all his life of the blessings of British free trade and the curses of American protection. But he recovers from that expectation. Moreover, his recovery is sudden. Likewise it is disagreeable.
