Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Memoir of Washington Irving: With Selections From His Works, and Criticisms The "Life and Letters of Washington Irving," in four volumes, prepared by his nephew, Pierre M. Irving, and published since the death of his illustrious uncle, has been for several years before the public, and may be considered a model work of its kind. It seems quite certain, however, that a brief and direct history of Irving, such as would be comprised in a single volume of moderate size, and including slight specimens of some of his more popular compositions, would supply a positive desideratum, and be an acceptable service, especially to multitudes of our youth, and others besides, who would shrink from the expense of a much more voluminous biography. Washington Irving was one of the distinguished fathers of American Literature, and his service in this field must ever be deemed of great and special importance to his country.
