"Samantha in Europe" by Marietta Holley is a humorous novel written in the late 19th century. This whimsical tale follows the adventures of Samantha, a lively and outspoken woman, as she embarks on a journey to Europe with her husband, Josiah. The story promises to explore the couple's experiences abroad, filled with Samantha's reflections on their life, travels, and the various eccentric characters they encounter along the way. At the start of the narrative, Samantha finds herself on an ocean voyage, deep in thought about her previous life in Jonesville. As she takes in the vastness of the Atlantic and reflects on the changes that brought her here, she reminisces about her family and their relationships, particularly with her cousin, P. Martyn Smythe. The preface features a playful dialogue between Samantha and Josiah, showcasing their dynamic and hinting at the humorous tone of the book. Their backstory is woven into the opening as they prepare for their trip to Europe, all while charmingly navigating domestic life and the challenges of travel.
