Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Caxtons, Vol. 3: A Family Picture
As my uncle and I were both of one mind upon the question of economy, we took up our quarters at a lodging-house in the City; and there it was that I first made acquaintance with a part of London, of which few of my politer readers even pretend to be cognisant. I do not mean any sneer at the City itself, my dear alderman; that jest is worn out. I am not alluding to streets, courts, and lanes; what I mean may be seen at the west end - not so well as at the east, but still seen very fairly; I mean - the house tops!
