In a series of letters, the American journalist and poet Nathaniel Parker Willis describes his years among British society in the 1830s. He writes of London drawing-rooms and literary dinners, the writers and wits he met, country houses, carriages in the park and visits to famous houses, drawing in part on his earlier Pencillings by the Way.
