Riassunto

Excerpt from London: An Intimate Picture

Upon the reasons for that fact a good deal of philosophy has been expended, but mostly in vain. An English writer in the Daily Mail sums it up that we want to be where our friends are, where our interests are, where one can live most vividly and with keenest zest. Patently inapplicable is such a view to the thousands upon thousands of us who are not Londoners or even Englishmen. Our friends are not there, nor any of our material in terests. We have no stake in London, and the hotel porter may be our sole acquaintance. Yet so far as concerns the zest, most of us, strangers and aliens though We may be, can undertake to prove our title against many a Londoner. Why?
