Produktbeschreibung

Excerpt from Miniatures and Moods The gospel of hard work, the half-crown start, laborious days, comfortable preferment finally or popular acclamation - these things are complacently recorded by elderly mediocrities in many a hulking tome. There are other things in life, and it may be you sometimes pause in your painful striving after perfection to think of them. Then are your thanks due to the wicked and garrulous Chevalier Grammont, who observed the ways of your fathers when a merry monarch was scandalous and poor; to the accomplished Anthony Hamilton, who recorded his observations; to Sir Walter (needing no epithet), who edited a translation of them; and to the serviceable Bohn, by whom or in whose spirit a revised edition has been issued. The revision need not trouble you. Very like you do not care though ´the prettiest and worst actress in the kingdom,´ Rochester´s protégee, is found to have been Sarah Cooke and not Mrs. Barry.
