Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Robert Hall The readers of Lord Lytton´s instructive fiction, "The Caxtons," cannot fail to remember Mr. Caxton´s discourse on the "Hygienic Chemistry of Books," in which he winds up his discourse by administering what he calls his medicine, for the mental distresses and sad life-sorrows of his brother and his son. "´Biography,´ he said, ´is the medicine here! Roland, you said you would try my prescription - here it is,´ - and my father took up a book, and reached it to the Captain. "My uncle looked over it - Life of the Reverend Robert Hall. ´Brother, he was a Dissenter, and, thank Heaven! I am a church-and-state man, to the backbone!´ "´Robert Hall was a brave man, and a true soldier under the Great Commander,´ said my father, artfully. "The Captain mechanically carried his forefinger to his forehead in military fashion, and saluted the book respectfully. "´I have another copy for you, Pisistratus,´ addressing his son, - ´that is mine which I have lent Roland. This, which I bought for you to-day, you will keep.´ About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
