Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Douglas Jerrold and Punch Douglas Jerrold was the author of what may be regarded as the most popular ´serial´ that has appeared in Punch during the seventy years in which the jester has sought to delight at once and lash the age; he was also the contributor of the only story which may be described as a ´full-length´ novel which has appeared in the pages of Punch; and furthermore he was the writer by whose pen the politics of Punch were most vigorously expressed. Neither originator nor editor of the paper, he yet stood in the popular regard during the ´forties and ´fifties more definitely for Punch than did any of his confrères. This being so, I do not feel that any apology is necessary for telling the story of his association with the journal, for reproducing some of his hitherto unknown work, and for indicating the nature and extent of his miscellaneous contributions of merely contemporary interest. It is not pretended that all of the contributions were of equal value -though I think that it will be recognised that Our Honeymoon has in it much of that truth to nature which is no small part of the secret of Mrs. Caudle´s success; while in Capsicum House and Miss Robinson Crusoe - neither of which was properly completed - the satirist of ´the sex´ had themes which lent themselves admirably to that combining of narrative with moralising in which he delighted.
