About the authors
Charles Hindley
d. 1893
A Victorian editor and collector with a taste for the lively side of print culture, he preserved the ballads, broadsides, street cries, and odd literary scraps that ordinary readers once bought for pennies. His books open a vivid window onto popular reading and everyday urban life in nineteenth-century Britain.

Pierce Egan
1772–1849
A lively voice from Regency London, he turned prizefights, street life, and fashionable mischief into wildly popular reading. Best known for Life in London and Boxiana, he helped shape early sportswriting and urban popular culture.

1794–1857
A fast-moving playwright of London’s popular stage, he helped turn early 19th-century melodrama into lively entertainment and scored a major hit with Tom and Jerry, or Life in London. His career stretched from circus-style spectacle to comic drama, and his work was a familiar part of theatergoing for years.
