Book Description
Excerpt from The Great Metropolis, Vol. 1 of 2 As it was impossible, in the limited space of two volumes, to do anything like justice to so compre hensive a subject as The Great Metropolis, the Author has followed out his plan by the publication of a Second Series of the work. The very great success of the first two volumes, coupled with the circumstance of their being necessarily incomplete of themselves, has induced the Author to lose no longer time in the preparation of the present, than was rendered unavoidable from the nature of the undertaking.
