This is a new volume of the critically acclaimed Dent Uniform Edition of Dicken's Journalism containing works never before collected together. Gone Astray picks up where The Amusements of the People leaves off, after the 1st 18 months of Dicken's contributions to Household Words. This Anthology brings together the best pieces of his journalism from that period - from Radical attacks on slums and factory accidents, to comic sketches of contemporary life..* A NEAR FINE copy of the 1st./1st. thus with somewhat faded spine to dust jacket, now in clear un-attached protective jacket, reducing it to VG++.* Slater, Michael
