Excerpt from London in Literature A few years ago, before the war and the aftermath of the war filled the daily newspapers, one Of our journals printed an entertaining correspondence on this subject The dullest place in England. A strong Claim was preferred for this dubious distinction for March in Cambridgeshire, but the claim was vigorously contested because in March you can always watch the engine shunt. There is a prodigious mass of literature on London a good deal more, in fact, than the catalogues of some fine country libraries contain. An attempt to bring that vast array Within the limits Of a small volume is like the endeavour Of a tiny infant to span two octaves; but in the following pages enough is given to show that in London men have been able for many centuries to watch the engine shunt.

Excerpt from London in English Literature English literature embraces, as no one realizes better than I, a vast and complicated body of material. To make a part of this in some degree more intelligible is the purpose of the present volume. It is not addressed primarily to scholars. It has been written for students and readers who enjoy literature the better as they more clearly understand its original setting. Nothing is included in the volume which cannot be easily traced by reference to standard works on London and obvious sources in literature. It happens, however, that, in all the array of studies about the great city, none has been produced with the purposes of the present book: to give an idea of London atmosphere in the various literary periods, to expound the chief places of interest for successive generations, and to make a reasonably generous selection from old and new engravings and photographs. Those who care to follow up any of my findings may be aided by the footnotes, the lists of illustrative readings appended to the chapters, the appendix on illustrative novels, and the index, in which account is taken of these data as well as of the text.

Excerpt from Literary Landmarks of London The chief aims of this book have been completeness and exactness. It contains not only a great deal of matter which has never been printed before, but it verifies the statements and corrects the mistakes of the works that have gone before it. Innumerable volumes upon London have been consulted, from Stow and Strype to the younger Dickens; early insur ance surveys, containing the number and position of every house in London since houses were first numbered, in 1767, have been compared with similar surveys of the present, by means of tracings and by actual measurements of the streets themselves; the first maps of London have been examined and compared in like manner with later and contemporary plans; directories for the last century and a half have been studied carefully; and it has been possible by these means to discover and note the exact sites of many interesting build ings, the position of which has hitherto been merely a matter of conjecture or entirely unknown.

Excerpt from Literary London: Its Lights and Comedies The great young man is very much with us in lite rature just now. I have tried to keep pace with the sundry manifestations of his intellect, with the things in his person and property which set the admiring crowd of paragraphists about him to prompt and persistent pencilling. In my moments of daring energy I have had thoughts of preparing what I might call A Small Fry 'cyclopaedia, the full and faithful record of the works, appetites, pastimes, idiosyncrasies, and attitudes of our great young men. These things sprawl across the small-talk journals and are laid as with a trowel on the papers whose forte is interviewing. It seems to me that such momentous matters should be reduced to some system, and the wildering wealth of delectable data about our great young men set in handy order for reference by an interested posterity.

Excerpt from London Scenes There are no streets like her streets then - misty, mysterious, endless; no houses like her grey houses throned upon cloud. She has a dreariness that is poignant and masterful, a shabbiness that is grandiose. The tawdriness of her summer mood has vanished; she wears her grey rags as a queen her robes, like a Cinderella who scorns all satins and crystal slippers though the crystal slippers are not wanting when the rain splashes up from the trans parent ways.

Excerpt from Ins and Outs of London Pages I have not endeavored to produce anything new. The majority of the objects themselves, upon which I have written, are old - and the accounts we have of them are old - but, as I have before stated, the theme is exhaustless. I have principally endeavored to describe persons and things as I found them - nothing more. The pleasure of occupying many leisure hours has repaid me for all trouble taken with my notes and thus, with a clear conscience and without apology, I cast the drop into the fathomless sea of books.

Excerpt from First Book of London Visions As a swallow, that sits on the roof, I gaze on the world aloof; In the silence, when men lie sleeping, I hear the noise of weeping The tears, b Day derided, To tender hiight confided.
