Although Hornblower's The Man Alone; he's an 18th century naval captain on detached duty _because_ he's The Man Alone, and not vice versa. Laurence, like Aubrey, isn't alone.

Simond, "Journal of a Tour and Residence in Great Britain" is on Gutenberg or reprinted as "An American In Regency England", and I found it to be quite interesting reading; the author was in the country in 1810-1811.
