Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Christmas Garland Stevenson, in one of his essays, tells its how he "played the sedulous ape" to Hazlitt, Sir Thomas Browne, Montaigne, and other writers of the past. And the compositors of all our higher-toned newspapers keep the foregoing sentence set up in type always, so constantly does it come tripping off the pens of all higher-toned reviewers. Nor ever do I read it without a fresh thrill of respect for the young Stevenson. I, in my ozem very inferior boyhood, found it hard to revel in so much as a single page of any writer earlier than Thuckeray. This disability I did not shake off, alas, after I left school. There seemed to be so many live authors worth reading. I gave precedence to them, and, not being much of a reader, never had time to grapple with the old musters. Meanwhile, I was already writing a little on my own account. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
