Book Description
Excerpt from Letters of Thomas Carlyle, 1826-1836 The letters contained in this volume have been selected from a great mass mainly addressed to the various members of Carlyle's family. In the years in which they were written he had few important correspondents in the outer world. The letters as here given afford a tolerably continuous account of his life from his marriage to the period when his fame was about to be established by the publication of his French Revolution. Many interesting letters of these years appear in Mr. Froude's Life of Carlyle; but they are printed. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Description
Excerpt from Letters of Thomas Carlyle, 1826-1836, Vol. 2 Our plans here are getting a little more fixed: I can now give you some faint fore shadow of them. I pride myself that I have never gone half a foot out of my road in search of what are called prospects: it is yet and has always been clear to me that I was one whom Promotion was least of all likely to visit. Thank Heaven I know my trade: it is to write tram while I can be kept alive by so doing, and to die writing it when I can no longer be kept alive. SO feeling, I look upon all mortals with the friendliest humour; let Kings and Chancellors fight their own battles, and all speed to them let the Devil go his way, and I will go mine. Therefore after settling my Author-business in London, I will not stay an hour, waiting at the pool, as some advise me. On the whole the world stands related.
