Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Physiology of New York Boarding-Houses The Bedouins - so we are informed by Layard - set any member of a tribe who is unable to sleep to watch the camels. With the like practical philosophy the Author of this volume, having had considerable experience of New York Boarding-Houses, resolved to devote that not-altogether-agreeably-acquired knowledge to the formation of a book. He hopes his readers will approve the performance. He thinks some of them may recognize more or less particulars as the counterpart of those familiar to their own personal observation. Perhaps it were indicative of a too sanguine disposition to express expectations of securing the approbation of the proprietors and proprietresses of the Establishments treated of. He trusts, however, they will read his "Physiology." They may derive profit from it - if not pleasure. May he suggest that a more judicious present from a Boarder or Boarders to a Landlady than this volume - especially if a leaf or so be turned down in appropriate places - could scarcely be imagined?
