Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Worlds Great Classics
But in the memoir it is different. The most patriotic Englishman, the most courageous, the best informed, the wari est, the cunningest of fence, can never hope to dispute French superiority here. And though inquiring into the causes of lit erary phenomena is, as a rule, a much more difficult, a much more delicate, above all a much more dangerous business than the quiet appreciation of them, and perhaps not quite so sensi ble, it is sometimes interesting and can be safely indulged in here.
