Lady Raffles : [memoir of her husband Sir Thomas Stamford Raffles]

'Read "Laurie Todd" by Galt. It is excellent; no surprising events, or very striking characters, but the humorous and entertaining parts of common life, brought forward in a tenour of probable circumstances. Read Raffles's Life. A virtuous, active, high-minded man; placed at last where he ought to be: a round man, in a round hole'.

Century: 1800-1849     Reader/Listener/Group: Sydney Smith      Print: Book
