Ascribed to Pierce Egan, author of "Life in London, 1821-22"; but according to the Camb. Hist. of Eng. Literature it "is a pleasanter book than its prototype ... the author had a purer style, a cleaner mind and a wider knowledge of London than Egan." cf. vol. XIV, p. 248.

"Originally published in 14 parts in pink wrappers, afterwards in pictorial boards ... Some copies on large paper."--J.H. Slater, Illustrated Sporting Books, 1899, p. 96.
