Book Description
Excerpt from Paris Herself Again, Vol. 1 of 2: In 1878-9 Herself Again. So did the At/zenoeum. The Observer spoke a great deal better of me and my productions than ever I or they deserved; the Grap/n'e gave me the cheeriest and most genial of reviews; the Pall Afull Gazette was loftily com'teous, and grandly affable; and my ancient and esteemed adversary, the Saturday Review, went out of its way, so it seemed to me, to be appreciative and complimentary. This I hold to be phenomenal. What has become of my enemies? Where are they Are they gone out of town? Will they, when they return, avail themselves of the publication of a second edition of Paris Herself A gain, to gird at me in the old familiar strain? I hope that they will not do anything of the kind. Life is not long enough for men of letters to abuse one another. By the time that these sheets issue from the press I shall be on the Sea, on my way to a far distant country which I have not gazed upon for sixteen years to the Great Re public which I first visited when she was in the Midst of War, and which I hope to find in the full enjoyment of Peace, and returning prosperity. Ere I depart I should like to shake hands with everybody. I think that, for myself, I can say, that there is not one human creature living for whom I nourish one spark of unfriendly feel ing; and it is a matter of great joy to me to find from the welcome this book has received, not only from the public, but from the reviewers, that, at least, I have not been making enemies since my last work was published.
