The Diary of a Hackney Coachman is a book written by J.H. Ingraham that tells the story of a coachman who works in London during the 19th century. The book is written in the form of a diary, which the coachman keeps to record his experiences as he drives his horse-drawn carriage through the busy streets of London. The coachman encounters a variety of characters, from wealthy aristocrats to working-class people, and the diary provides a fascinating insight into the social and cultural landscape of London during this time period. The book also explores the coachman's personal life, including his relationships with his family and friends. The Diary of a Hackney Coachman is a compelling read that offers a unique perspective on life in 19th century London.We had remained in the little parlor but a few minutes, after the departure of Mrs. Waters, when she re-entered followed by her daughter. This young woman whose hopes and happiness had been so suddenly blighted, possessed a graceful person, and features of no ordinary attraction. She was attired in deep mourning; but her sweet pale face mourned the loss she had experienced without aid of external weeds.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
