Carl Schurz on American freedom from the New World
A letter dated May 3 from New York discusses Carl Schurz’s impressions of the United States after emigrating sixty years earlier. It contrasts extreme liberty with religious zeal, notes liberal individualism and market daring, and warns European revolutionists may push for rapid change, while praising public opinion as a slower but durable force. The piece reflects on democracy, authority, and the tension between liberty and social order.
