Sobre este item
London : Nathaniel Cooke, 1853. First edition in English of this amiable and much-quoted primary source on Victorian London. An acute overseas visitor shines a light on London street life, the London squares, life on the Thames, the London police, Newgate, the Post Office, the London of fogs and gaslight, the City, the Bank of England, Hyde Park, the haunts of fashion, the newspapers and periodicals, the theatres, and much else. Originally published as "Wanderungen durch London" (1852-1853) and here in a translation by Otto von Wenckstern (1819-1869), translator of Goethe, writer on slavery, the Schleswig-Holstein question, etc. Crown 8vo (187 x 116mm). xii,290pp. Frontispiece, extra pictorial title and six lively plates of street scenes by William McConnell (1832?-1867). Bound, without half-title, in neat contemporary half roan, ruled, lettered and blocked in gilt; marbled sides; lightly rubbed and worn at extremities; short split to upper joint; a few minor internal marks and slight creases, but a good and serviceable copy of an important contribution to the history of the London streets.
