Book Description
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.

Book Description
Excerpt from Last Leaves: Sketches and Criticisms The boy early 'gave evidence of talent; and, at one time, it was proposed to educate him for the ministry. It is, perhaps, no mighty matter of regret that this project, for some reason or other, was abandoned. Undoubtedly, as a parson, he-would have been much beloved by his parishioners; but there seems no special reason to suppose he would have shone as a pulpit orator. He would Scarcely have written the Life Drama, or writing, could scarcely have published it; and, instead of Dream thorp, etc., the world might perhaps have been favoured with some volumes of dull discourses, which would not, by comparison, have enriched it. Mr Smith, senior, was a pattern-designer; and by this accident, as I imagine, rather than any special leaning or aptitude that way, the junior was determined to the same employment.
