Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Glory of English Prose, Letters to My Grandson
If you have read, gentle reader, the earlier series of Letters to my Grandson on the World about Him, you are to understand that in the interval between those letters and these, Antony has grown to be a boy in the sixth form of his public school.
It has not been any longer necessary therefore to study an extreme simplicity of diction in these letters.
My desire has been to lead him into the most glorious company in the world, in the hope that, having early made friends with the noblest of human aristocracy, he will never afterwards admit to his affection and intimacy anything mean or vulgar.
