About this audiobook
Faces and Places is an eclectic, mostly affectionately humorous collection of articles on nineteenth century travel, depicting events and personalities by the British journalist Henry Lucy, who wrote for the Daily News, a London newspaper.
His open letter "To Those About to Become Journalists" rings as true today as when it was written long ago.More audiobooks from Sir Henry William Lucy
