Summary "Journal of a Voyage across the Atlantic" by George Moore is a travel narrative written in the mid-19th century. The book chronicles the author's journey from England to North America, providing a personal account filled with observations about the landscapes, cultures, and people he encounters along the way. The opening of the narrative details Moore's departure from Liverpool aboard the steamship "Great Western." He describes initial experiences at sea, including rough weather and daily activities on board, such as mealtimes and public worship, which illustrate the routines of passengers during the voyage. Moore establishes a series of reflections on his desire to document his experiences for friends back home and his growing awareness of the differences between the English and American societies he observes, setting a tone of curiosity and exploration that likely permeates the entirety of the account.
