A. Hammerton is a collection of humorous illustrations and stories likely compiled during the late 19th century. This volume highlights the wit and character of Cockney life, with contributions from renowned artists and cartoonists associated with "Punch," a well-known British weekly magazine. The content focuses on the effervescent charm and peculiarities of London’s Cockney culture, aiming to capture both the laughter and the vibrancy of life in the East End of London. The opening of the work sets the stage for a delightful exploration of Cockney humour, contrasting it with more elitist perspectives. It features various comedic sketches, sayings, and illustrations that revolve around the everyday lives of Cockney characters, particularly around the fictional 'Arry and his peers. The introductory editor's note emphasizes the cleverness inherent to Cockney humour, showcasing a range of clever puns and observations that provide insight into urban life during that time, all told with affection rather than mockery. This collection promises readers an amusing and intriguing glimpse into the heart of London society through the eyes of its most vibrant citizens.
