Hammerton is a collection of humorous sketches and illustrations reflecting on travel experiences, likely written in the late 19th century. This work features contributions from various prominent artists and cartoonists associated with the British comic magazine "Punch." The collection aims to showcase the lighter side of travel, poking fun at the idiosyncrasies of tourists and the amusing situations that arise from their adventures both in England and abroad.

It sets the tone for the humorous exploration of English tourism and the quirks of travelers, as well as societal observations related to travel customs. The passage contains witty anecdotes involving characters like Mrs. Ramsbotham and various travelers engaging in comical misunderstandings and mishaps, showcasing the essence of English humor that characterizes Mr. Punch's adventures.
