Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Book Collector and Other Papers The improper conduct of proper names in print is proverbial Mrs. Keeley masquerades under her husbands name on page 139. The late T.Bailey Myers attempts to conceal himself on page 60. The Honorable Mrs. Norton assumes, on page 130, a title which does not belong to her. These perversities successfully eluded author, printer and proof-reader, each of whom insists that he is responsible. Luckily the newspaper critics, like most other people, pay very little attention to privately printed books. I thank my two English friends who so kindly pointed out two of these blunders just in time to enable me to offer this apology.
