Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from John La Farge a Memoir and a Study My debt to the subject of this memoir must on every page be apparent to the reader, but I wish here to make formal acknowledgment of it. Without La Farge´s aid I could not have made my study biographical as well as critical I have also to thank, for many helpful courtesies, Miss Grace Edith Barnes, in the last ten years of his life his private secretary and appointed by him the executrix of his estate. He made her familiar with much in his career, and the light she has thus been enabled to throw upon it has been generously shared with me. I am under obligation to Mr. Henry Adams for material of great importance, embracing the letters addressed to him from which I have quoted, the notable analysis extracted from his privately printed "Education of Henry Adams," and some further reflections on his old friend and fellow-traveller in Japan and the South Seas. Mr. James Huneker has been kind enough to lend me a sheaf of La Farge´s letters to him. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
