When Household Words closed, Dickens launched a new weekly, and these are the pieces he wrote for it himself. They range from the announcement of the magazine to arguments about the poor man and his beer, satires on criminal law and a gossiping provincial newspaper, a defence of Leigh Hunt, and sketches of clergymen and young men from the country.
Dickens the journalist at full strength, campaigning and joking in the same breath. Download the free EPUB.
