    Paperback (Forgotten Books, Jan. 16, 2018)
    Excerpt from Prose Writings of Nathaniel Parker WillisHome J ournal. During all these years his pen was never idle, and he put forth volume after volume made up from his articles and correspondence in the columns of these periodi cals. A second and a third trip to Europe, visits to the South and West, to Washington, Cape Cod, Sharon Springs, and elsewhere, letters from Idlewild, his country-seat on the Hudson, studies of city-life, and miscellaneous papers of all kinds, furnished the contents of these books. They were good enough reading at the time, but altogether ephemeral, except now and then a poem or a short sketch which showed something of original inspiration, and rose above the general mediocrity of hack-work. More than half of the titles in this volume, and a great deal more than half of the amount of matter, have been taken from his three early books, Pencillings by the Way, Inklings of Adventure, and Letters from Under a Bridge.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

  • Inklings of Adventure, Vol. 1 of 2

    Nathaniel Parker Willis

    Paperback (Forgotten Books, Feb. 1, 2019)
    Excerpt from Inklings of Adventure, Vol. 1 of 2A delightful work. The Letters, now for the first time incorporated, are even better than those which have so long secured the public favor. Their unaffected pleasantry, abundant variety, and unstudied eloquence remind us of the best efforts of Addison and Steele, over which authors, Cowper had the advantage in a more generally informed understand ing Times.The works of Cowper need no recommendation they are incorpo rated into our living literature, and will be read as long as men shall read for amusement, or to gather wisdom, of which no poet is a greater teacher. The peculiar merit of the present edition is, that it is the only one which can contain the whole of Cowper's Private Correspondence. It being copyright, and exclusively appropriated to this edition.
