Dust jacket has very light shelf wear, small spot on bottom edge of text, otherwise without flaw 6 X 9" 427 pages, weight 1 Kg, published 1987. First published in 1862, this is a remarkably vivid picture of an aspect of Victorian life that few other…writers of the age had dared to examine: the teeming underworld of 19th-century London. A mine of odd and intriguing information, throwing valuable sidelights on the feelings of guilt and state of moral tension that underlays the apparent sanctimoniousness of so much Victorian literature. Line Drawings and Engravings (illustrator).

Crimson cloth, black lettering, dustwrapper a little rubbed at extremes, but clean and all tight. *The book has been edited down, originally part of a 3 volume set published between 1851-62…. The author was co-founder of Punch and a good journalist and wrote like one, 2 of his brothers were also writers, one became sub-editor of Punch, friends of Charles Dickens and may have some influence on his stance on poverty and voice for "improvement". He also remarkably, recorded voices in their natural narrative that still seem as alive today as the day they spoke to him. At the time some of the street traders formed an association to stop the itinerants from talking to him as they felt their lives were being in some ways "ridiculed". But they weren't, far from it. Truth often hurts. 41 Miniature autobiographies collected in this edition.
