"John and Betty's History Visit" by Margaret Williamson is a children's travel narrative written in the early 20th century. The story follows two young American siblings, John and Betty, as they embark on an exciting journey to England, where they will explore historical sites and learn about the rich cultural heritage of their hosts. Through their eyes, readers can expect to experience the sights and sounds of London and beyond, as they interact with local children and navigate the differences between American and English customs. At the start of their adventure, John and Betty arrive in England and are greeted by their English hosts, Mrs. Pitt and her children, Philip and Barbara. The opening chapter captures their first impressions as they ride through the bustling streets of London. They marvel at the unfamiliar sights, from the red buses to the architecture of the buildings, while learning about their new surroundings. As they begin to acclimate to the English way of life, the siblings express curiosity about their hosts and the places they will visit together, setting the stage for an enthralling exploration of England's history and culture in the chapters to come.
