A comic tale in broad Yorkshire dialect by John Hartley, told as letters from his famous character Sammywell Grimes as he sets off from Liverpool and travels across America. Grimes's plain-spoken Yorkshire view of the New World, and his mishaps along the way, make up most of the fun. It will appeal to readers interested in Yorkshire dialect writing, Victorian popular humour and the history of the West Riding.
The book has toning, rubbing and some marks on the covers, with wear and darkening to the edges and corners. The front endpaper has foxing and brown spotting, but the pages shown are otherwise clean. See photos
