The Kickleburys Abroad, A Legend Of The Rhine, Rebecca And Rowena, The Second Funeral Of Napoleon is a collection of four works by the renowned English author, William Makepeace Thackeray. The first story, The Kickleburys Abroad, is a satirical travelogue that follows the misadventures of a family as they journey through Europe. The second story, A Legend Of The Rhine, is a humorous tale set in Germany that pokes fun at the romanticism and melodrama of the Gothic genre. The third story, Rebecca And Rowena, is a retelling of Sir Walter Scott's Ivanhoe that focuses on the female characters and their relationships. The final story, The Second Funeral Of Napoleon, is a satirical account of the elaborate funeral procession held for Napoleon Bonaparte after his death in exile. Thackeray's trademark wit and social commentary are on full display in this collection, making it a must-read for fans of his work and those interested in 19th-century literature.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
