Excerpt from Personal Traits of British Authors: Byron-Shelley-Moore-Rogers-Keats-Southey-Landor Authors, who have been chosen as fairly representa tive of their period. Careful search has been made for everything which might throw light upon these authors; upon their appearance, habits, manners; upon their talk, their work and their play, their strength and weakness - physical, mental, moral. Records of acts directly exemplifying traits of char acter have been given, whenever it was possible, in preference to mere expressions of individual opin ion. Any testimony other than that of eye-witness es has been admitted with reluctance. A strictly chronological arrangement was impracticable, as the authors all belong to the same general period. They have, therefore, been distributed into such groups as were suggested by the likeness or unlikeness which the men bore to one another; an arrange ment according either to affinity or to contrast. Although the search for materials has been care fully made, it is by no means exhaustive. Never theless, the hope is entertained that nothing of vital importance has been overlooked.' The materials have been found abundant, bewilderingly so, as may be inferred from the fact that the contents of these volumes have been drawn from over two hundred.
