Book Description

Excerpt from Poems, Plays and Miscellaneous Essays of Charles Lamb: With Introduction and Notes The present volume, with its predecessor the Essays of Elia, contains all of Lamb's miscellaneous writings that he had himself selected for preservation in a permanent shape. Twice during his lifetime were issued collections of his prose and verse, - the Works of Charles Lamb, published by the Olliers in 1818, and the Album Verses issued by Edward Moxon in 1830. The volume now presented is made up of the contents of these two works. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
