Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Memoir and Correspondence of the Late Sir James Edward Smith, M.D, Vol. 2 of 2
My dear Sir, I have many thanks to offer (too long postponed) for your kind present of excellent dried fruit and biscuits; the latter are, I perceive, recovering their peculiar taste and good quality which I will now venture to say were quite gone. Those cruel times of real or pretended scarcity ruined every sort of eatables where ?our was con cerned; neither do I think that bread or any other ?our compositions have yet been in, nor perhaps ever will return to, the same perfection as before.
