Book Description
Excerpt from Literary Anecdotes of the Nineteenth Century: Contributions Towards a Literary History of the Period The work, of which this is the first volume, has been suggested by Nichols's well-known Literary Anecdotes of the Eighteenth Century. The editors hope to provide in it a considerable amount of fresh matter, illustrating the life and work of British authors in the Nineteenth Century. To a large extent they rely upon manuscript material, but use will be made of practically inaccessible texts, and of fugitive writings. While leading authors will receive due attention, much space will be devoted to the less-known writers of the period. It is intended to supply Biographies, Letters hitherto unpublished, additions from Manuscript sources to published works, together with a series of full Bibliographies of the writings of the greater authors. Every precaution has been taken to avoid the infringement of copyright, and the editors hope that they will be forgiven any involuntary transgression. Illustrations and numerous facsimiles will be provided in each volume. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Blacklegs, Card Sharps, and Confidence Men
Author: Thomas Ruys SmithPublisher: LSU Press
ISBN: 0807137367
Category : Games & Activities
Languages : en
Pages : 286
Book Description
In Blacklegs, Card Sharps, and Confidence Men, Thomas Ruys Smith collects nineteenth-century stories, sketches, and book excerpts by a gallery of authors to create a comprehensive collection of writings about the riverboat gambler. The voices of canonized writers such as William Dean Howells, Herman Melville, and, inevitably, Mark Twain hold prominent positions. But they mingle seamlessly with lesser-known pieces such as an excerpt from Edward Willett's sensationalistic dime novel Flush Fred's Full Hand, raucous sketches by anonymous Old Southwestern humorists from The Spirit of the Times, and colorful accounts by now nearly forgotten authors like Daniel R. Hundley and George W. Featherstonhaugh. Smith puts the twenty-eight selections in perspective with an Introduction that for the first time thoroughly explores the history and myth surrounding this endlessly fascinating American cultural icon.
