| Publisher Description: A Journey from Cornhill to Grand Cairo is a delightful anti-travel book, describing a Mediterranean journey of the kind highly fashionable at the time but viewing the famous destinations with human disparagement rather than conventional adoration. The Irish Sketch Book is equally irreverent of contemporary literary fashion but more politically loaded due to its subject. |
