Excerpt from Our Gipsies in City, Tent, and Van: Containing an Account of Their Origin and Strange Life, Fortune-Telling Practices &C., Specimens of Their Dialect, and Amusing Anecdotes of Gipsy Kings, Queens, and Other Gipsy Notabilities Although, according to the best authorities, gipsies have lived in England nearly four hundred years, yet comparatively little is known either of their origin, character, or general life. Added to this fact, the Author begs to state that his reasons for submitting the following pages to the public are: First, That he has had many opportunities of gaining a know ledge of the gipsies by frequent visits to them in their tents and vans, and by conversations with them respecting their own history and life. The Second reason is that some writers have, in their descriptions of this people, leaned too much to the dark side of their character, which, he thinks, is not fair, but even unjust to them.
