Excerpt from Old Chelsea a Summer-Day's Stroll The stroll described in these pages may be imagined to be taken during the summer of 1888: all the dates, descriptions, and references herein having been brought down to the present moment. The specimen of Old Chelsea ware on the cover is an accurate copy - reduced in size, naturally - of one of the plates of the set belonging once to Dr. Johnson, now in Holland House. For the privilege of this unique reproduction I am indebted to the courtesy of Lady Holland. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
