The object of the present work is to illustrate the history of
English literature, from the end of the fifteenth to the beginning
of the twentieth century, by means of letters. The editor has
sought to bring the reader into personal touch with the great
authors through their letters, believing that character and
personality are better revealed from their correspondence. Some of
the authors featured in this volume include: Sir Thomas More;
Edmund Spenser; Sir Walter Raleigh; John Donne; Robert Herrick;
John Milton; Izaak Walton; Samuel Pepys; William Congreve; Daniel
Defoe; Jonathan Swift; Richard Steele; James Boswell; Henry
Fielding; Edmund Burk; William Cowper; and Robert Burns amongst
others.
