Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Letters Literary and Theological of Connop Thirlwall, Late Lord Bishop of St. David´s Bishop Thirlwall´s Letters contained in this volume were collected for the most part by his nephew and executor, Mr. John Thirlwall, before he went to America, and were by him intrusted to me for publication. I had selected and arranged those I thought most likely to be of general interest, and had intended to connect them by such biographical notices as I might be able to glean from the recollections of friends or from other sources, but was prevented by a variety of circumstances, into which I need not enter, from completing my task. Meanwhile a second volume, consisting entirely of the Bishop´s correspondence with one friend during the latter years of his life, had been edited by Dean Stanley, and was already printed and ready for publication. It was desirable that the two volumes should appear together; and to avoid further delay I consented, at the Dean´s suggestion, to place my portion of the work in the hands of the Rev. Louis Stokes, who undertook to complete it. The whole of the Memoir is written by him; and he desires through me to express his thanks to the numerous correspondents who have replied to his inquiries for information in his work. Unfortunately the materials for a biography are of necessity scanty and imperfect. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
