(See note section this document for more information on Edition). Blue leather hardcover with title on spine in gold lettering. The spine has a Library label.fictionCharles Dickens (1812–1870) was one of the great English novelists of the Victorian era, famous for vivid characters, social criticism, and stories that were first published in serial form. He began as a journalist, rose to enormous popularity during his lifetime, and wrote major works such as Oliver Twist, David Copperfield, and Great Expectations. Sketches by Boz is Charles Dickens' first published book, a collection of fifty six short sketches originally appearing in periodicals from 1833 to 1836 under his pseudonym "Boz." It captures everyday London life through vivid observations of ordinary people and scenes. The book is divided into four sections, "Our Parish," "Scenes," "Characters," and "Tales." The first three offer non narrative portraits of urban life, while "Tales" includes fictional stories. Illustrated by George Cruikshank with forty plates, it blends humor, social commentary, and realism. Published by Chapman & Hall, London, the specified full title matches the "New Edition, Complete" or first one-volume combined edition from 1839, compiling two earlier 1836 series. Earlier parts issues ran 1837-1839; Chapman & Hall took over rights in 1837. "Ltd" likely indicates a later reprint by Chapman & Hall Ltd., but core content remains unchanged.book, the old curiosity shop, charles dickens, shipwrecked-coast, flagstaff-hill, flagstaff-hill-maritime-museum, warrnambool, maritime-museum, flagstaff-hill-maritime-village, pattison collection, warrnambool library, warrnambool mechanics’ institute, ralph eric pattison, corangamite regional library service, warrnambool city librarian, mechanics’ institute library, victorian library board, warrnambool books and records, warrnambool children’s library, great ocean road
