Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from An Actor´s Notebooks: Being Some Memories, Friendships Criticisms and Experiences of Frank Archer The author of this volume has not attempted to describe fully his theatrical career, although much of it is in the nature of an autobiography; it is a record rather of a few of the gifted and interesting people with whom he has had the good fortune to come into contact. Most of it was compiled before the attractive volume of his old friends and managers, Sir Squire and Lady Bancroft, came into his hands. A few of the details necessarily touch on incidents of which they have treated, but it cannot render their pleasant book of less value. Accounts of the Franco-German War and the Siege of Paris have been given to the world by many graphic and able pens; but the author, who happened to witness the first spark of that fearful conflagration, believes that the letters of his brother, which describe some of the events of that time, will not prove the least interesting part of his work. To the many friends who have been helpful to him his best thanks are due, especially to Mr. A. P. Watt, who, as literary executor of the late Wilkie Collins, gave permission for some of his letters to be published.
