As a publisher we focus on the preservation of historical literature. Many works of historical writers and scientists are available today as antiques only. Hansebooks newly publishes these books and contributes to the preservation of literature which has become rare and historical knowledge for the future.

Published in London just as the idea of an "American" was becoming a reality, Letters introduced Europeans to America's landscape, customs, and then-new people. Moore's reader's edition situates these twelve letters, which shift from hope to disillusion, in the context of thirteen other essays representative of Crevecoeur's writings in English.
