Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Uncommercial Traveller: The Lamplighter to Be Read at Dusk, Sunday Under Three Heads and the Lazy Tour of Two Idle Apprentices
Dickens selected the title of Uncommercial Traveller, because, he said, he travelled for the great House of Human interest Brothers, and had rather a large connection in the fancy goods way. He adds: Literally speaking, I am always wandering, here and there, from my rooms in Covent-garden, London 3 now about the city streets; now about the country by-roads; seeing many little things, and some great things, which, because they interest me, I think may interest others. 1 The papers were begun in All the Year Round, on January 28, 1860; and seventeen of them having been printed by October 13, of the same year, they were, in December, pub.
