Book excerpt: A new and newly annotated selection of letters--the only selected edition available in hardcover--from the English eighteenth-century historian, novelist, and politician whose correspondence is one of the most admired in English literature. Author of the first gothic novel and son of the first prime minister of Great Britain, Horace Walpole had wide-ranging interests that included literature, politics, world affairs, collecting, antiquities, and architecture. He wrote to his numerous correspondents on these and other topics in prose that is celebrated for its charm, eloquence, and wit.

This edition offers new annotations throughout, with introductions to its various sections and a general introduction on Walpole as a letter writer. In addition, the text of the letters has been corrected and previously excised passages have been restored.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Horace Walpole's Letters: A Selection IS letter writing, in the artistic sense, a lost ac complishment? There are plenty of people who would not linger long over a reply. It is Often asserted that Rowland Hill and the penny post killed the old - fashioned style of letter. That is not true, however, for it survived in Old fashioned hands into the mid - Victorian era, when it received its coup de grticg by the invention Of what our fathers, when in a superior mood, called that modern abomination, the ubiqui tous post-card. Correspondence has since its advent grown pithy, brisk, prosaic. The majority of men have not the time in this cast-iron, express-paced age, with its tele graphs and telephones, and constant business and social demands, for the Old elaborate letter of genial gossip and kindly compliment. Senti ment, some would even say, is at a discount, and whatever may be the cause, imagination and fancy, to say nothing of wit and humour, have grown curiously rare under a penny stamp. The world is too much with us now. Our interests are too many, our work too insistent. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Select Letters of Horace Walpole Born in 1717, he grew to manhood during the long political supremacy of his father, the famous Sir Robert Walpole, and acquired instinctively the per sonal and party sentiments natural to a Whig of the Whigs. At Eton he made intimate friendships in a circle of clever and fashionable lads of his own sphere of society - scions of Society, in fact - for England then possessed but one, and in it were concentrated the fashion, the power, the wealth, and a good deal of the intellect of England.
