Near Piccadilly Memoir of an American in London
A fragmented diary style column recounts an American narrator’s London lodging near Piccadilly, encounters with locals and strangers, impressions of Chiswick House and the Duke of Devonshire, and musings on bread, cheese, and prices as winter approaches. The rambling piece mixes humor, travel notes, and social observation with anecdotes about lodgings, landladies, and chance comments in Hyde Park and Hampton Court.
