Description

First published in 1837, Mr Pickwick Pilgrimages was Charles Dicken's first novel and introduced readers to the charitable Samuel Pickwick - a much loved Dickensian character and founder of the Pickwick Club. Along with club members Tracy Tupman, Augustus Snodgrass and Nathaniel Winkle, Pickwick journeys outside of London to pursue philosophical investigations of life. Along the way, the bashful and chivalrous protagonist encounters all manner of people and curious dilemmas, and it is the places he visits which Walter Dexter explores in this delightful and thorough account of Mr Pickwick's six pilgrimages. Describing the conditions from departing London to travelling to Rochester, Ipswich, Bath, Bristol and Tewkesbury and the corresponding story, Mr Pickwick's Pilgrimages provides a vivid and illuminating study of the settings encountered by Pickwick, his companions and the colourful characters they meet along the way. English author Walter Dexter (1877-1944) became a member of the Dickens Fellowship in 1905 and in 1925 he took up the post of editor of 'The Dickensian', the Fellowship's magazine. He devoted much of his time to studying Dickens, travelling around England exploring the towns and villages which inspired his favourite author and frequently visited the British Museum and libraries undertaking topographical research. Dexter was a committed reader, researcher and collector of first editions, known for The Letters of Charles Dickens, consisting of three volumes and Dickens a biography. He also wrote Some Literary Associations of East Anglia with William Dutt and The Kent of Dickens. For details of other books published by Albion Press go to the website at www.albionpress.co.uk.
