Book Description
Excerpt from Miscellaneous Stories, Sketches, Etc: Now Chiefly Collected for the First Time Those whose minds were half-formed or unevenly balanced, and not to be looked upon as genuine or worthy pro fessions for rational beings. Samuel Lover, who was born in Dublin 011 Feb. 24th, 1797, surprised his respectable Philistine of a father by showing at a very early age a decided taste for those amusements which were deemed to be beneath the consideration of a stock-broker, and he seriously exasperated the same honest broker by very clearly stating his unhesitating preference for music and art rather than for the contemplation of the rise and fall of stocks and shares - even to the extent of adopting the study of them as a profession. He was a mere infant when he was discovered one day in a distant part of the house strumming on an Old piano the tune Of Moore's song Will you come to the bower? A musical friend of the Lovers' declared the boy had a remarkable aptitude for music, and urged the father to buy him a good piano and have him taught. This was eventually done, and the love of music, engendered in him by his mother's singing Of Irish melodies, was thus promoted and developed.

Book Description
Excerpt from Tales, and Miscellaneous Pieces, Vol. 5 of 14 Some author says, that a good book needs no apology; and, as a preface is usually an apology, a book enters into the world with a better grace Without one. I, however, appeal to those readers who are not gluttons, but epicures in literature, whether they do not wish to see the bill of fare. I appeal to monthly critics whether a preface that gives a view of the pretensions of the writer is not a good thing. The author may overvalue his sub ject, and very naturally may overrate the manner in which it is treated: but still he will explain his views, and facilitate the useful and necessary art which the French call reading with the thumb. We call this hunting a book, a term certainly in vented by a sportsman. I leave the reader to choose which he pleases, whilst I lay before him the con tents and design of these volumes.
