N2  - "Schilderungen des Treibens im Leben und Handel in den Vereinigten Staaten und Havana" by Julius Ries is a travelogue written in the early 19th century. The book details the author’s experiences and observations during his journey to the United States and Havana from 1838 to 1839. Ries, a merchant, aims to share practical insights for fellow businessmen while also addressing the nature of trade, society, and cultural dynamics in these new regions.  The opening of the text reveals Ries's motivation to escape the monotony of his commercial life in Germany and seek a broader understanding of the world through travel. He recounts the decision to embark on this journey and the preparations leading up to it. As he sets off from Berlin to Hamburg and boards a steamship, Ries introduces us to various characters he encounters along the way, including travelers and local merchants. His initial observations reflect both his excitement for exploration and the challenges faced during the voyage, setting the stage for a detailed examination of American life and commerce in the chapters to follow.
