Description
The Savage Club Papers is a collection of essays, sketches, and stories written by members of the Savage Club, a group of Victorian-era writers, artists, and performers. The book was first published in 1867 and edited by Andrew Halliday, a playwright and journalist who was also a member of the club.The essays and stories in the book cover a wide range of topics, from literature and art to politics and social issues. Many of the pieces are humorous in tone, reflecting the club's reputation for wit and irreverence.Some of the most famous contributors to the book include Charles Dickens, who wrote a satirical piece about the club's annual dinner, and Mark Twain, who contributed a humorous story about a man who accidentally gets locked in a bank vault.Other notable pieces in the book include a series of sketches about life in London's East End, a satirical poem about the British aristocracy, and a series of essays about the art of caricature.Overall, The Savage Club Papers is a fascinating glimpse into the world of Victorian-era writers and artists, and a testament to the wit and creativity of the members of the Savage Club.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
