Through his affiliation with the New York Herald, the young English-born writer Kinahan Cornwallis (1839-1917), was afforded the opportunity to witness the nineteen-year-old Prince of Wales's 1860 highly successful tour of Canada and America more closely than any other individual outside the royal party. He chronicled his observations and depicted the progress of the first visit of a member of the British royal family to the Americas, and the resulting book was quickly published in New York. Cornwallis wrote that his great aim in recounting the travels of His Royal Highness was to provide the most accurate account of the tour, a task for which he considered himself uniquely qualified. He expected his volume to be received with equal enthusiasm, and the events to be accorded equal historical significance, in both England and America, perhaps even strengthening the deeply rooted bonds between the people of both nations.

""The Song of America and Columbus or The Story of the New World: A Greeting to Columbus and Columbia"" is a historical book written by Kinahan Cornwallis in 1892. The book is a tribute to Christopher Columbus and the discovery of the New World, and it explores the history and culture of the Americas before and after Columbus's arrival. The author provides a comprehensive account of the events leading up to Columbus's journey, including the political and economic factors that contributed to the discovery. The book also delves into the impact of Columbus's arrival on the indigenous peoples of the Americas, as well as the subsequent colonization and exploitation of the region by European powers. Throughout the book, Cornwallis weaves together historical facts with poetic language, creating a vivid and engaging narrative that celebrates the rich cultural heritage of the Americas. The book is an important contribution to the study of American history and culture and provides a fascinating insight into the early days of the New World.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
