 Wright's book is also an example of an early nineteenth-century humanitarian perspective of the new democratic world.Historian Helen Elliott also pointed out that Wright's traveloque was "translated into several languages and widely read by liberals and reformers" in Great Britain, the United States, and Europe.In early 1825, after spending time at former President Jefferson's home in Virginia and Robert Owen's utopian settlement at New Harmony, Wright began developing her plans for an experimental farming community.
