Social England Under The Regency

Meer over het boek

Excerpt from Social England Under the Regency Certainly, it is not the least part of an Author's reward for all his pains and trouble, to find that the Public appreciates his efforts, and purchases and reads his books. I am thus emboldened to continue my work, and sketch the men and manners of the Regency. Most books of this class deal mainly with the great ones of the land, but I have only done so where necessary to illustrate the history of the times, my aim being more to delineate the social condition of England and her people. I may add, that this work will be found perfectly reliable as history, nothing being taken at secondhand, but all compiled, even down to the illustrations, from original and contemporaneous authorities.
