Book Description
Excerpt from The Life and Times of Oliver Goldsmith, Vol. 1 of 2 When this work first appeared, twenty-three years ago, it was made the subject of an attack by the author of a former Life of Goldsmith so unprovoked and inex ensable that even literary history affords hardly a parallel to it. I at once published a reply, to which no rejoinder was ever attempted; and all the subsequent editions of my book were prefaced by it. Sir James Prior is now dead, and I do not print it here. It is, however, necessary to retain some remark' on the principle involved in his com plaint. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
