Book Description
Excerpt from The British Critic, Vol. 5: A New Review, for January, February, March, April, May, and June We return, as usual, at our stated period, to select the flowers of British Literature, and recapitulate those productions which we have had the satisfaction to commend. As this is the most pleasing part of our talk, it is satisfactory to us to be informed, that our Readers also look with pleasure to it; and expect the closing of a volume, as the settling of a complicated account, by which they are assisted in the calculation of their gains. If there were a library endowed sufficiently to collect all valuable productions that appear, to such a record it would naturally apply; and the reports of a court of criticism, though not pretending to infallibility, would undoubtedly be consulted, if not with more use, at lead with more pleasure, than the reports of a court of law. We are happy therefore to provide, either for the general Collector, or the more confined selector of literature, an assistance of this nature; and for the mere speculator on the mental progress of his country, so pleasing and so interesting an object of contemplation. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books. Find more at www.forgottenbooks.com This book is a reproduction of an important historical work. Forgotten Books uses state-of-the-art technology to digitally reconstruct the work, preserving the original format whilst repairing imperfections present in the aged copy.
