Excerpt from RecollectionsThe suggestion had been made before, it was made repeatedly, and by many whose disinterested and critical judgment had naturally so much weight with Mr. Childs that this book is the happy result. To the text of the four original papers have been added the story of the Memorial to Shake speare at stratford-upon-avon, an account of the Window in Westminster Abbey to the memory of the Christian poets Herbert and Cowper, the Window commemorative of the virtues and genius of the poet Milton, in St. Margaret's Church, Westminster, and of the Reredos erected in St. Thomas's Church, Winchester, England, as a memorial to Bishop Ken of that ancient cathedral city, together with a sketch of the celebration of the birthday of Mr. Childs by the printers of Philadelphia, with an introduction by Professor Richard T. Ely, of Johns Hopkins University.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
