Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Reminiscences of Samuel Dexter: Originally Written for the Boston Evening Transcript The gathering together of these fourteen numbers, and their embodiment in a little volume, are wholly the work of our friends, the publishers. I looked no farther than to the agency of the journal, in which these papers were originally published, for their dissemination. I had no thought of making a book. Indeed, it has often seemed to me a much more satisfactory course, upon such an occasion as the present, to address some ten, twenty, or thirty thousand readers, through the columns of a popular newspaper, of good repute; than to embark one´s thoughts, in a portly volume, which may never come before the eyes of half as many hundreds. If, among these floating fragments, there is anything of value, sooner or later some literary chiffonier, as they pass down the stream, may arrest their progress, and gather them to the shore; and, all that is destined to perish, cannot gravitate into oblivion, too cheaply, or too speedily. These remarks, of course, apply not to authors by profession, who thrive by their literary labors. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
