Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Their Majesties Servants, 1897: Or Annals of the English Stage, From Thomas Betterton to Edmund Kean, Actors-Authors-Audiences The following is Dr. Doran´s preface to the People´s Edition published in 1865, two years after the original work: - "A Second Edition of ´Their Majesties´ Servants´ being required, I gladly avail myself of the opportunity afforded by the public favour, to offer a cheap issue of these annals of the English stage, in one volume, - an edition which I have been repeatedly solicited, by numerous applicants, to prepare. By compression of details that were too diffuse, by omission of passages not directly bearing on the general subject of the book, by correction of errors that had been overlooked, and by addition of narrative which served further to illustrate my story, I trust I have rendered the work worthy of the general patronage, to which it is now (in a greatly improved form) respectfully submitted.
