The third and final volume of the first collected edition of
Hogg's letters reveals his versatility in old age. In 1832 he
visits London for the first time and becomes the literary lion of
the season. As communications improve in the early 1830s, he
explores the possibility of writing for American periodicals, and
deals (mostly) gracefully with the various claims made on his time
as a celebrity author. The loss of old friends is compensated for
by a circle of young admirers and prot?g?s, and Hogg turns an
acutely observant eye on an age of cheap periodicals and of
political reform.
A full editorial apparatus includes biographical notes on his
chief correspondents and an overview of this phase of his life. The
volume also contains an index to all three volumes of this complete
edition of Hogg's letters.
