Hardcover. Zustand: Very Good Plus. 1st Edition. Charles Dickens's first son, also called Charles had a varied career, including working as a publisher. This eccentric book is a mixture of travel guide and an exploration of the eccentricities of Victorian London and The Thames. This volume went into several editions, but the first is genuinely scarce. Even more scarce is a copy in such excellent condition. The pages are bright and clean, the green pages of advertising to front and rear are bright and clean. The boards are a little rubbed, but generally excellent, with a classic Victorian design. It's a lovely item. Interestingly the title page has an inscription "With Compliments, 1881" with the 1881 crossed out. The name is not clear, and I assume it is the dedicatee. It is thus possible that the dedication is also by Charles Dickens Jr, though I cannot guarantee this. Nevertheless, an intriguing addition to the book, and in all, a lovely little item.
