The Book of Snobs
by W. M. Thackeray
It is associated with a collection of satirical works about British society in the mid-19th century and the invention of the word snobbery in its current usage. This fascinating work is completely recommended for anyone who is a fan of Thackeray or is interested in the satire of the period. This humorous work begins with the statement, "Snobs must be studied like other objects of natural science."
