Dickens, Reynolds, and Mayhew on Wellington Street

Between 1843 and 1853, Household Words, Reynolds¿s Weekly Newspaper, the Examiner, Punch, and the serial edition of London Labour and the London Poor were all published from Wellington Street off the Strand, which housed the offices of Charles Dickens, G.W.M. Reynolds and Henry Mayhew. Shannon examines the implications of their close proximity for the editors themselves, for nineteenth-century publishing, and for the reading public.
