Yankey in England, The, comedy by
David Humphreys, produced by amateurs in 1814 and published in 1815. The play is set in a London hotel, where American Whig and Tory officers meet a French nobleman and an adventuress. Their actions furnish a background for Doolittle and Newman, the Yankees, who straighten out their complicated affairs. The last two are significant as showing the Yankee tradition of paradoxical simplicity and cunning, in contrast to the refinement of the other characters.
