Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Astonishing History of Troy Town My Dear Cannan, It is told of a distinguished pedagogue that one day a heated stranger burst into his study, and, wringing him by the hand, cried, "Heaven bless and reward you, sir ! Heaven preserve you long to educate old England´s boyhood! I have walked many a weary, weary mile to see your face again," he continued, flourishing a scrap of paper, " and assure you that but for your discipline, obeyed by me as a boy and remembered as a man, I should never - no, never - have won the Ticket - of - Leave which you behold!" In something of the same spirit I bring you this small volume. The child of encouragement is given to staggering its parent; and I make no doubt that as you turn the following pages, you will more than once exclaim, with the old lady in the ballad - "O, deary me I this is none of I!" Nevertheless, it would be strange indeed if this story bore no marks of you; for a hundred kindly instances have taught me to come with sure reliance for your reproof and praise. Few, I imagine, have the good fortune of a critic so friendly and inexorable ; and if the critic has been unsparing, he has been used unsparingly.
