Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Budget of Anecdotes: Chiefly Relating to the Nineteenth Century ´Another volume of Anecdotes! When is this to end?´ would be a perfectly reasonable exclamation; and for a considerable time I have had misgivings as to the expediency of my present publication. Many judicious friends, however, have for several years urged me to print a selection from my répertoire; and notwithstanding a waggish reminder by a member of my own family that the state of a raconteur has been pronounced to be ´anec-dotage,´ I have been induced to comply with their solicitations. Happily, with a very few exceptions, my illustrations are really anecdotes in the literal sense of the term - something like ninety percent, never having previously appeared in type. In some instances they have been derived from newspapers and other ephemeral publications, but very rarely from works of a permanent character.
