My Unknown Chum (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781479417155)

Charles Bullard Fairbanks (1827 - 1859), writing under the pen name Aguecheek, was best known for his collection of sketches and essays known as "My Unknown Chum." The sketches and essays were originally seen in the Boston "Saturday Evening Gazette" as they detailed foreign travels. As the author writes: "The author has endeavoured to avoid the details which he always found tiresome in the works of many foreign tourists, and to confine himself to his individual experience." Contains a Foreword by Henry Garrity.
