London Labour and the London Poor (Penguin Classics) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Henry Mayhew, founder of Punch magazine, wrote this four-volume sociological classic during the 1850's. If you are at all interested in the Victorian era, in British history, in London, or in urban history in general, this is a must-read. The Penguin version is abridged and is a distillation of the "best" of the multiple-volume set. This distillation is itself over 500 pages, so imagine the impact of the entire set! The utter destitution of the London poor is set out in such vivid detail than one cannot help being shocked at the conditions human beings were forced to live in in the greatest city of its time. The only fault I find with this book is Mayhew's occasional lapses into preaching. Otherwise a fine book

Unflinching reports of London's poor from a prolific and influential English writerLondon Labour and the London Poor originated in a series of articles, later published in four volumes, written for the Morning Chronicle in 1849 and 1850 when journalist Henry Mayhew was at the height of his career. Mayhew aimed simply to report the realities of the poor from a compassionate and practical outlook. This penetrating selection shows how well he succeeded: the underprivileged of London become extraordinarily and often shockingly alive.

Appalachian Trail Thru-Hikers' Companion-2007 Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I really enjoyed looking through this book. You can actually use this book for "arm chair" hiking. The summaries are so detailed you feel as though you are hiking along the trail(almost). But for the "real" hikers, the information was comprehensive, well researched and current. Thank you for doing the "leg work" for us.

Travel Smart: Montana/Wyoming/Idaho Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This book is not exhaustive...and isn't intended to be. It's the lowdown on the best places to go and stay and visit. It's written in a breezy, informed style that is fun to read and, from what I can tell, extremely accurate. Judging from the places I've been able to visit recently (Jackson Hole, Bozeman, Yellowstone) the author is right on. I'd recommend this book highly to anyone traveling into this region.
