Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Pilgrimages in Paris
IT is generally more difficult to introduce a small personage anxious to make his way in the world than a great one, when both are alike strangers to the public; and I feel that it is equally so with a book. Fortunately, however, the little volume now in the hand of the reader is not altogether a stranger, as several of the sketches which it con tains are reprinted from Fraser by the kind permission of the former proprietor of that maga zine and if the aphorism of our grandmothers be correct that a thing laid away for seven years is.
