""Real Life In London V2: Or The Further Rambles And Adventures Of Bob Tallyho, And His Cousin Tom Dashall"" is a book written by an amateur author and first published in 1905. It is a sequel to the original ""Real Life In London"" and follows the continued adventures of two young men, Bob Tallyho and his cousin Tom Dashall, as they navigate the social scene of London in the early 19th century. The book is a satirical portrayal of the high society of the time, with the two protagonists encountering various characters and situations that highlight the excesses and frivolities of the upper classes. The narrative is presented in a series of vignettes, each depicting a different aspect of London life, from the theater to the gaming tables to the fashionable salons of the aristocracy. Throughout the book, the author employs a humorous and irreverent tone, poking fun at the pretensions and affectations of the wealthy elite. There is also a strong emphasis on the pleasures of the flesh, with the characters engaging in drinking, gambling, and womanizing. Overall, ""Real Life In London V2"" is a lively and entertaining glimpse into the world of Regency-era London, offering a humorous and satirical take on the excesses and foibles of the upper classes.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
