Excerpt from Jenny: A NovelIt was the close of a tropical day in August in the year 1878, that Henry Everard left his cham bers in Jermyn Street in the cool air of the evening to take a stroll about the streets of London, which possessed for him, as for Doctor Johnson, a greater fascination than anything else in' the world. They furnished him with an endless and quiet enjoy ment - an enjoyment which, unlike most of the delights of the great City, did not demand a rigorous payment in health and spirits.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
