    Hardcover (Forgotten Books, Sept. 17, 2017)
    Excerpt from Thaddeus of Warsaw, Vol. 1 of 2The contemplation of such a model, inspired me with emulation, while I remarked, With concern, that these good novels themselves had given place on the family reading-table, to light and often dangerous tales, from the French school, of false sentiment, and headlong passion. Observing also the mistakes which my young contemporaries make in their estimates of character and of life; how much they require that the difference between certain splendid vices, and the brilliant order of virtues, should be distinctly marked, with perhaps a too daring hand I here venture to sketch the sacred line.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

    John Poulter

    Paperback (HardPress Publishing, Aug. 1, 2012)
    Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.
