Excerpt from The Life and Adventures of Martin Chuzzlewit, Vol. 1 of 2 Many years later Dickens revisited America. He was received with a kindness and delicacy, which he acknowledged in a speech, and it was his desire that these remarks of his should be added to all future editions of Chuzzlewit and the American Notes. Thus the tomahawk was buried, the calumet was smoked, the controversy was closed. If the Americans of the generation had something to forgive, their sons forgave it, with delicacy and generosity. It is very much to be wished that Englishmen of letters, if they visit America, should not write books about the country. Thackeray's example is best.
