Excerpt from John Ruskin: Letters Written on the Occasion of the Centenary of His Birth, 1919The Ruskin Centenary Committee, under the presidency of Lord Bryce, held a public meeting in London on the 8th of February, 1919, the centenary of Ruskin's birth. The letters and other communications which are printed in this book were written in connexion with this meeting.They form a striking tribute to the in¿uence of the man in whose honour they are written. Some of them are from contemporaries and friends of Ruskin: others who speak of his in¿uence represent a new generation. The variety of the writers and of the forces they represent in the national life are in themselves an impressive testimony to the living inspira tion of Ruskin's work.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
