Publisher's Synopsis

The Uncommercial Traveler is a collection of literary sketches and essays written by the renowned Victorian author, Charles Dickens. Originally published in 1860, this 1909 edition includes additional material and revisions made by the author before his death in 1870. The book is a reflection of Dickens' own experiences as a traveler and his observations of the world around him. Through his witty and insightful prose, he takes the reader on a journey through England and Europe, exploring the sights, sounds, and people he encounters along the way. The essays cover a wide range of topics, from the bustling streets of London to the quiet countryside, from the grandeur of ancient ruins to the simplicity of rural life. Dickens also shares his thoughts on social issues of the time, such as poverty, crime, and education. The Uncommercial Traveler is a fascinating glimpse into the mind of one of the greatest writers in English literature. It is a must-read for anyone interested in Victorian travel writing, social commentary, or the works of Charles Dickens.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
