Letters To The Joneses (1868)

By Timothy Titcomb and J.G. Holland

Book Overview

""Letters to the Joneses"" is a collection of satirical letters written by the fictional character ""Titcomb"" to the equally fictional ""Jones"" family in 1868. The letters poke fun at the social conventions and pretensions of the time, as well as the Joneses themselves. The book is divided into several sections, each addressing a different aspect of society, such as fashion, religion, and politics. Through his witty and humorous writing, Titcomb offers a critique of the superficiality and hypocrisy of the upper classes. The book was well-received upon its publication and remains a classic example of American satirical literature.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
