Post Dickens, Charles: Speeches - Literary and Social. v1. 12 Apr 2010

A fascinating collection of Charles Dickens' speeches, on both literary and social themes. Dickens, like the celebraties of today, was a "hot ticket" on the after-dinner speaking circuit, and his presence was a guarantee to pull in the crowds.

This book contains more than 50 of Dickens' speeches, given between 1841 and his death in 1870, at events ranging from a dinner organised by the "Gardeners' Benevolant Institution" to the "Metropolitan Sanitary Association" to an international boat race between Oxford and Harvard Universities (which Oxford won).

A fascinating book, giving a much more intimate look at "Dickens the man" than do his novels.

Enjoy!
