About this product

About this product

Product Information

Satirical genius William Makepeace Thackeray may be best remembered for vels like Vanity Fair, but he first made his name as a writer as a contributor to magazines like Punch. In these pieces, Thackeray often mercilessly skewered the pretensions of the British upper classes. The collection Book of Sbs brings together some of Thackeray's finest work in this vein, and it's a must-read for fans of witty humor writing. The necessity of a work on Sbs, demonstrated from History, and proved by felicitous illustrations: -I am the individual destined to write that work-My vocation is anunced in terms of great eloquence-I show that the world has been gradually preparing itself for the WORK and the MAN-Sbs are to be studied like other objects of Natural Science, and are a part of the Beautiful (with a large B). They pervade all classes-Affecting instance of Colonel Sbley.
