Sketches From Shady Places (1879)

By Thor Fredur

Book Overview

Sketches From Shady Places is a book written by Thor Fredur and published in 1879. The book is a collection of sketches and stories that provide a glimpse into the lives of people living in the shadier parts of town. The author takes the reader on a journey through the dark alleys and dimly-lit streets of the city, introducing them to a cast of characters that includes gamblers, thieves, and prostitutes. Through his vivid descriptions and engaging storytelling, Fredur brings to life a world that is often hidden from view. The book is a fascinating look at the seedy underbelly of urban life in the late 19th century and is sure to captivate readers with its gritty realism and compelling narrative.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
