TAILIEUCHUNG - Gipsy Life being an account of our Gipsies and their children

I have taken the liberty of humbly dedicating this work to you, the object of which is not to tickle the critical ears of ethnologists and philologists, but to touch the hearts of my countrymen on behalf of the poor Gipsy women and children and other roadside Arabs flitting about in our midst, in such a way as to command attention to these neglected, dark, marshy spots of human life, whose seedlings have been running wild among us during the last three centuries, spreading their poisonous influence abroad, not only detrimental to the growth of Christianity and the spread of civilisation, but to the present. | Gipsy Life by George Smith 1 Gipsy Life by George Smith The Project Gutenberg eBook of Gipsy Life by George Smith This eBook is for the use of anyone anywhere at no cost and with almost no restrictions whatsoever.
