Sobre este artículo
Chapman and Hall, 1850. Hardcover. Very Good. In this travelogue, Dickens doesn't hold back his critique of American society. His humorous dedication reads: "I dedicate this book to those friends of mine in america, who, giving me a welcome I must ever gratefully and proudly remember, left my judgment free; and who, loving their country, can bear the truth, when it is told good humouredly, and in a kind spirit." 7 ¾" x 5". Later "cheap edition", 1850. Green cloth boards with stamped decoration to covers and gilt titles/decoration to spine. Advertisement, half-title, frontispiece, full-title, copyright, dedication, [ix]-x preface, [xi]-xiii contents, section title page, 1-175, copyright. Condition: Sunned to pale green-brown at spine and ½ border of front cover. Tiny stains and spots of discoloration to boards. Occasional smudge to pages including frontispiece.
