The English and American Poets and Dramatists of the Victorian Age: With Biographical Notices (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from The English and American Poets and Dramatists of the Victorian Age: With Biographical Notices

The production of the present volume has been truly, on the part of the author, a labour of loveand it has been his endeavour to make it as complete as he could. He believes that he has not passed over a single name worthy of mention, and in choosing the extracts it has been his constant aim to introduce the reader to the real beauties of each writer. Many of these selections are true gems, which will be perused with delight, and always remembered pleasure, for, to quote the words of Keats.
