Overview

Welcome to this novelization of "Our American Cousin, " a 19th-century play by Tom Taylor that holds a unique place in both theatrical history and American culture. This book aims to bring the story to life for a modern audience, making it accessible and engaging for readers of all ages, particularly students who may be encountering this work for the first time. "Our American Cousin" premiered in 1858 and quickly became a staple of the theatrical world, known for its comedic take on the cultural differences between Americans and the British.
The play is perhaps most famously remembered as the performance Abraham Lincoln was attending at Ford's Theatre on the night he was assassinated. This tragic event forever intertwined the play with a pivotal moment in American history. Despite its historical significance, the language and style of 19th-century theater can present challenges for contemporary readers. This novelization endeavors to bridge that gap, transforming the original script into a narrative format that retains the charm and humor of Taylor's work while enhancing its readability and relatability. In crafting this novel, we have stayed true to the spirit and plot of the original play, expanding dialogue and description to provide a richer, more immersive experience.
Our goal is to preserve the wit and satire that made "Our American Cousin" a beloved comedy while offering insights into the characters' thoughts and motivations, making their world more vivid and accessible. This book also includes supplemental essays and educational materials designed to enhance your understanding and enjoyment of the story. You will find historical context, analyses of themes and characters, and discussions of the social and cultural issues of the time.
These additions aim to provide a comprehensive view of the play's significance and its lasting impact. For students, we have included discussion questions, creative activities, and projects to encourage deeper engagement with the text. Educators will find ready-to-use lesson plans and study guides, making this novelization a valuable resource for classroom use. We invite you to step back in time to the mid-19th century, a period of great change and cultural exchange, and experience the humorous, touching, and sometimes poignant story of Asa Trenchard and his British relatives.
Through this novelization, we hope to make "Our American Cousin" not just a historical artifact, but a living, breathing narrative that continues to entertain and enlighten. Enjoy the journey!
