Excerpt from Lady Russell's Letters, Vol. 1 The'good sense, tender affection, fortitude, and re ligion, of lady Russell, are eminently displayed in the following collection of Letters; to which Dr. Birch often refers, in his Life of Archbishop Tillot son, giving also two or three extracts. The letters were copied from the originals by Thomas Sellwood, who lived in her family, and dedicated them to the late duke of Bedford. His manuscript, which is in the library at Woburn Abbey, being faithfully transcribed, permission was easily obtained to pub lish this illustrious monument of female virtue. May the example of a lady, no less distinguished by merit than dignity, excite imitation! And may the conduct of the great be universally in uenced by the maxim, that nobility derives its brightest splen dour from solid piety l.

Excerpt from Letters of Rachel, Lady Russell, Vol. 1 A new edition of the Letters of Lady Russell is here presented to the world. It is unnecessary to dilate on the merits of letters which have been long familiar to the public. Those merits are separate and distinctive; the letters are not letters of business connected with great poli tical events; they are not letters of wit and humour written to show the talent of the writer; they are not, alas! The overflow of a heart at ease, playful and sparkling, or mingling with smooth flow in the current of the world. The Letters of Lady Russell, as originally published, contain but one topic and one resource that topic the judicial murder of her husband - that resource the strength of a soul sustained by all the fortitude of a. Heroine, and chastened by all the piety of a saint. This edition will contain, besides the letters of that melancholy period, those of a time of wedded joy, few in number indeed, but valuable, as showing how deep was that happiness which the tyranny of a voluptuous king broke into and destroyed.

Excerpt from Lady Susan; The Watsons; Letters of Jane Austen, Vol. 1 Sense and Sensibility, like Lady Susan, was at first composed in the form of letters. Jane Austen was doubtless following the exam ple of Richardson, whom she regarded with un bounded admiration. One of the defects of this method, in addition to its awkwardness for nar ration, is illustrated by Lady Susan, in which the wicked woman is made to write letters reveal ing her own character and designs with an Open ness which, under a paternal government, might get her into trouble.

Excerpt from Letters of Mary Russell Mitford, Vol. 1 of 2 The sorrow - the disadvantage - the mistake of Miss Mitford's life should be clearly unfolded. Hers was the story of a credulous woman sacrificing herself to an utterly worthless idol - told over again, but with some difference from its usual formula. There is no survivor who can be pained by the plainest statement of the present case. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
