Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book presents an outsider's perspective on British culture, manners, and everyday living. The author, an American reporter on assignment in England in the 1880s, had a journalist's eye for detail and an American's sense of wonder at the unfamiliar. London, in particular, receives…a great deal of his attention, with its busy streets, its confusing customs, and its infamous fog. The author's observations and experiences provide a glimpse into the daily life of Victorian-era London and considers society, customs, and the quirks of British life. The author concludes that there is much to be admired and much to bemoan, and his insights continue to fascinate and inform readers today.
