About this product

Product Information

Excerpt from Scenes and Thoughts in Europe Certain classes of books are such favorites, that nearly the Whole responsibility of publishing them should be borne by the public. The eagerness with which they are read is a premium on their production. The traveller inforeign lands finds the privacy of his letters and journal encroached upon while writing them, by the thought that they may be turned into Copy for the printer. To so many others has this happened, that the possibility of its happening to himself cant be kept out of his mind, spotting, it may be, the candor of his statements. Afterwards, when he has been at home long eugh for the incidents of his jour ney to grow by distance of time into reminiscences, what he wrote on the spot comes upon him with unexpected freshness and distinctness. Himself gets information and entertainment from the perusal of his tes, letters and diary. In this state of semi-self-complacency, the public urgently invites him to its broad tables - invites him through the kindness wherewith it has loaded so many of his book-blazoned fellow-travellers. He begins to criticise his manuscript to shape it by excisions, by additions to calculate quantity; to confer with a popular publisher, who is of course in close league with the public, - until at last, he finds that his manuscript has been made away with and in its stead he has proof sheets. His private doings. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
