J.J. Barthelemy : Travels of Anacharsis the Younger in Greece,

My father's large bookcase was stuffed with odd volumes of the Gentleman's Magazine and other miscellaneous matters. Anacharsis' 'travels in Greece', Robertson's 'America', Goldsmith's 'History of England', Adams' 'Rome', Wesley's sermons and Fletcher's controversial volumes. All these had been read by me, either for my own amusement, or aloud to my father, whose sight had been lost for years.

Century: 1800-1849     Reader/Listener/Group: Anne Lutton      Print: Book
