Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from James and Horace Smith: A Family Narrative Based Upon Hitherto Unpublished Private Diaries, Letters, and Other Documents Very many Smithian "footprints on the sands of time" are somewhat faint, but those of James and Horace Smith have left a deep and lasting impression. The brothers´ chief work, Rejected Addresses, is, in its way, a classic, declared by so high an authority as Lord Jeffrey to indicate a talent to which he "did not know where to look for a parallel." Why, it may be asked, has not a systematic Life of James and Horace Smith been published before this? The reason is not far to seek: until now, the necessary material has not been available. Horace penned a brief memoir of James, as preface to a collection of the latter´s Comic Miscellanies, published in 1840; and after Horace´s death in 1849, suggestions were made that a biography of the two eminent brothers should be written.
