Book Description

Excerpt from The Art of Conversation and Other Papers The two questions which you addressed to me through him I have answered below these were questions which I could answer easily and without meditation but for the main subject of our future correspondence, it is so weighty, and demands such close attention (as even I find, who have revolved the principal points almost daily for many years), that I would willingly keep it wholly distinct from the hasty letter which I am now obliged to write on which account it is that I shall forbear to enter at present upon the series of letters which I have promised, even if I should find that my time were not exhausted by the answers to your two questions below.
