German and Southern life compared by T. B. Brooks
In a letter from Stuttgart December 10 1889 T B Brooks contrasts Germany and the American South. He notes a larger official class in Germany with low pay and lifelong tenure, versus the South where respectability rests on character and wage conditions differ. He observes German wages, food costs, and labor practices, rail travel, farm methods, and the high value of roads and markets, concluding with social contrasts and cautious optimism.
