Produktbeschreibung

Excerpt from Portion of the Journal Kept by Thomas Raikes, Esq. From 1831 to 1847, Vol. 1: Comprising Reminiscences of Social and Political Life in London and Paris During That Period The Author of this Journal was the eldest sou of Mr. Thomas Raikes, a rich and respected merchant in the city of London, who was descended from an ancient family in Yorkshire, and himself a personal friend of Mr. Pitt and of Mr. Wilberforce. His sou was educated at Eton, where he became a fair classical scholar. In his nineteenth year he was sent abroad with a private tutor. In the course of his travels he visited most of the German courts, and made himself extensively acquainted with modem languages. On his return to England, he became a partner in his fathers house; but having little inclination for mercantile affairs, and a marked preference for social and literary pursuits, he very soon established himself in the west end of the town, became a member of the fashionable clubs, and mixed largely in what is, by a somewhat questionable courtesy, denominated the best society.
