This book was released on 2015-07-08 with total page 526 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Charles Dickens as I Knew Him: The Story of the Reading Tours in Great Britain and America (1866-1870) My Preface shall be a very brief one, but I feel that two or three introductory words are necessary. And in the first place (and chiefly I must confess with a wish to disarm them), I will make an apology to any and all of my critics who may miss in these pages the flavour and essence of a genuine literary work. I am far from the affectation of claiming for my book that it should rank as an artistic production. All that I have done is this: I have spent some months in the effort to tell, as simply as possible, the story of the famous Reading Tours of Charles Dickens; the most brilliantly successful enterprises of their kind that were ever undertaken. Had I the pen of a ready writer, I could have told my story a hundred times better than I have done; but such as it is, it has been a labour of love to me.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "All that is loathsome, drooping, or decayed is here." In 1842 Dickens sailed to America to observe The New World that held such fascination for the English. He went to magnificent landmarks like Niagara Falls but also included visits to mental institutions and prisons. He met President John Tyler in D.C and the well-educated Laura Bridgman, who was deaf-blind. Dickens found lots to admire, but also noted how coarse and ill-mannered the Americans were. That did not go over well with the Americans. With superb language and humour, Dickens gathered these fascinating observations in this travelogue that will have anyone with the slightest interest in cultural differences completely spell-bound. Charles Dickens (1812-1870) was an English author, social critic, and philanthropist. Much of his writing first appeared in small instalments in magazines and was widely popular. Among his most famous novels are Oliver Twist (1839), David Copperfield (1850), and Great Expectations (1861).
Download or read book American Notes for General Circulation written by Charles Dickens and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2018-08-06 with total page 364 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: American Notes for General Circulation by Charles Dickens -When Charles Dickens set out for America in 1842 he was the most famous man of his day to travel there - curious about the revolutionary new civilization that had captured the English imagination. His frank and often humorous descriptions cover everything from his comically wretched sea voyage to his sheer astonishment at the magnificence of the Niagara Falls, while he also visited hospitals, prisons and law courts and found them exemplary. But Dickens's opinion of America as a land ruled by money, built on slavery, with a corrupt press and unsavoury manners, provoked a hostile reaction on both sides of the Atlantic. American Notes is an illuminating account of a great writer's revelatory encounter with the New World. In her introduction, Patricia Ingham examines the response the book received when it was published, and compares it with similar travel writings of the period and with Dickens's fiction, in particular Martin Chuzzlewit. This edition includes an updated chronology, appendices and notes. We are delighted to publish this classic book as part of our extensive Classic Library collection.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Account of the Ball Given in Honor of Charles Dickens in New York City: February 14, 1842, From the New York Aurora Extra Charles Dickens was the discoverer of yellow journalism. In our eager desire to find some counter-agent for the vicious influence it has become we commonly lose sight of the fact that just such newspapers have existed for three-quarters of a century and that we rage now against them more because of our clearer understanding than because of any new character they have assumed. Dickens saw in 1842 the very things of which we are most acutely aware in 1908, and we have added to his indictment only a succinct phrase.
