The Little Frenchman And His Water Lots: With Other Sketches Of The Times is a satirical novel written by George Pope Morris and published in 1839. The story is set in New York City during the 1830s and follows the adventures of a Frenchman named Monsieur Bon-Bon, who comes to America with the hopes of making a fortune by selling water lots. These water lots are plots of land that are partially submerged in water and are deemed worthless by most people, but Bon-Bon sees them as a lucrative opportunity.The novel is a commentary on the speculative frenzy that swept through America during the 1830s, particularly in the real estate market. Morris uses humor and satire to critique the greed and folly of those who were willing to invest in anything that promised to make them rich, regardless of its actual value.In addition to the main story of Monsieur Bon-Bon, the book also contains several other sketches of the times, including a parody of the popular melodramas of the day and a humorous account of a visit to a phrenologist.Overall, The Little Frenchman And His Water Lots is a witty and entertaining novel that provides a fascinating glimpse into the social and economic climate of America during the 1830s.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
