All Sorts Of Pittsburgers: Sketched In Prose And Verse is a book written by Arthur Gordon Burgoyne and published in 1892. The book is a collection of sketches, both in prose and verse, that depict the people of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania during the late 19th century. Burgoyne's writing style is descriptive and humorous, painting vivid portraits of the various characters he encountered in Pittsburgh. The book covers a wide range of subjects, from the wealthy industrialists to the working-class laborers, and from the politicians to the street vendors. The sketches are arranged thematically, with sections dedicated to different aspects of Pittsburgh life, such as the city's architecture, its social scene, and its sporting events. Throughout the book, Burgoyne provides insights into the culture and customs of Pittsburgh, as well as his own personal observations and experiences.Overall, All Sorts Of Pittsburgers is a charming and entertaining glimpse into the lives of the people of Pittsburgh during a time of great change and growth in the city's history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
