Author: VANDERKISTE RW
Title: Notes and Narratives of A Six Years' Mission, Principally Among The Dens of London
Description: London, James Nisbet 1854 xvi, 295pp 19x12, blind stamped brown cloth, glt text on spine. Edges of cloth rather worn, edges roughly cut, paper browning, ex-lib with a few stamps, fair copy thus. Personal recollections of the author's six years in the Cow Cross district of Clerkenwell as a missionary; his observations on licentiousness, profligacy and deliquency are generally that the cause is a lack of religious education, perhaps unsurprisingly, but are interesting nonetheless.
