Excerpt from Bibliography of the Writings of Charles Dickens: With Many Curious and Interesting Particulars Relating to His Works In the following list of the writings of Charles Dickens, the works of more importance are kept separate from the minor and miscellaneous productions; and the strictly chronological arrangement observed in the catalogue at the close of "Forster's Life of Dickens," has been avoided. The compilation has been made with the aid of a set of the various Works as they were originally published, in parts or volumes. The list furnishes the titles of the whole of Dickens's known writings, with notices of re-issues; together with such particulars as are necessary to give the Bibliophilist or Collector a thorough knowledge of the peculiarities of the several editions hitherto published, or in course of publication. Sketches by Boz: Illustrative of Every-day Life and Every-day People. These sketches appeared at intervals during 1834, 1835, in the pages of the Monthly Magazine and the columns of the Morning Chronicle and Evening Chronicle, The sketch first published - "Mrs. Joseph Porter over the Way" - appeared in the Old Monthly Magazine for January, 1834. The signature "Boz" was first used by being attached to the second part or chapter of "The Boarding House" in the August number of the same Magazine - the previously-published sketches having appeared anonymously. In the "Life of Dickens" by R. S. Mackenzie (see page 61), it is stated that some of the "Sketches" originally appeared in Bell's Life in London. First Series, published in two vols., post 8vo, with sixteen Illustrations by George Cruikshank, Price one guinea. Preface dated "Furnival's Inn, February, 11836."

Trieste Publishing has a massive catalogue of classic book titles. Our aim is to provide readers with the highest quality reproductions of fiction and non-fiction literature that has stood the test of time. The many thousands of books in our collection have been sourced from libraries and private collections around the world.The titles that Trieste Publishing has chosen to be part of the collection have been scanned to simulate the original. Our readers see the books the same way that their first readers did decades or a hundred or more years ago. Books from that period are often spoiled by imperfections that did not exist in the original. Imperfections could be in the form of blurred text, photographs, or missing pages. It is highly unlikely that this would occur with one of our books. Our extensive quality control ensures that the readers of Trieste Publishing's books will be delighted with their purchase. Our staff has thoroughly reviewed every page of all the books in the collection, repairing, or if necessary, rejecting titles that are not of the highest quality. This process ensures that the reader of one of Trieste Publishing's titles receives a volume that faithfully reproduces the original, and to the maximum degree possible, gives them the experience of owning the original work.We pride ourselves on not only creating a pathway to an extensive reservoir of books of the finest quality, but also providing value to every one of our readers. Generally, Trieste books are purchased singly - on demand, however they may also be purchased in bulk. Readers interested in bulk purchases are invited to contact us directly to enquire about our tailored bulk rates.

Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

Excerpt from The Minor Writings of Charles Dickens: A Bibliography and Sketch The present volume, following that on "The Novels of Charles Dickens," published in 1897, completes the bibliographical history of the various writings of the Novelist, dating from the time when his first printed paper appeared in the Monthly Magazine, December, 1833, until "that fatal day" in June, 1870, when his prolific pen was finally laid aside, never again to delight us by its humour or affect us to tears by its pathos.
