Excerpt from A Study Maria Edgeworth: With Notices of Her Father and FriendsA thorough survey of contemporaneous literature gave here and there an interesting mention of Miss Edgeworth and I have gleaned carefully What seemed of value from various sources.Full and exhaustive criticisms of her works in the great reviews of the day, and the magazines and papers, leave nothing to be desired on that score. She was awarded a first rank in the lists Of novel-writers, and, though time may have lessened the readers of her books, their in¿uence on literature is quite evident from the constant references to her in the writings of English, American, and Continental authors.This Study has its limitations and shortcomings, but great labor and much time have been expended on it, and an earnest desire has prompted its plan and execution.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
