Höhne is a travel narrative written in the early 19th century. The text chronicles Höhne's experiences as a copper-smith traveling from Weimar through Bremen to North America and Texas during the years leading up to the mid-1840s. The book delves into the realities faced by German emigrants, detailing their aspirations, misfortunes, and encounters as they navigate the journey and settle in new lands. The opening of the narrative sets the stage for Höhne's journey, starting with a reflective farewell to his homeland and an account of the companions he travels with. The first letters describe the various trials faced during the journey, including ill weather, fears of separation, and a harrowing sense of uncertainty about the future. He highlights the poignant emotions tied to leaving loved ones, the discomforts of travel, and the heavy toll taken on families by the decision to emigrate. The early glimpses of camaraderie and strife among fellow travelers serve to illustrate the deep human experiences inherent in such life-altering decisions.
