Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The British Quixote Or, the Summer´s Ramble of Mr. Geoffry Wildgoose, Vol. 1: A Comic Romance; To Which Is Prefixed the Life of the Author This ingenious novel was the production of the Rev. Richard Graves, rector of Claverton in Somersetshire ; a gentleman who has been considerably distinguished in the literary world for above half a century. His father was Richard Graves, Esq. of Mickleton In Gloucestershire, who died in 1729, and was a man of learning, particularly in the history and antiquities of his country. The author of this work was born at Mickleton, the seat of his father and grandfather, on May 4, 1715, and received his early education under the Rev. Mr. Smith, the curate of the parish. About the age of thirteen he was removed thence to the school of Abingdon in Berkshire; the reputation of which, at that time, stood very high. At the age of sixteen, he was chosen scholar of Pembroke college, Oxford, where he was soon distinguished for uncommon proficiency.
