Publisher's Synopsis

Excerpt from The Reader's Handbook of Allusions, References, Plots and Stories: With Two Appendices

It would be most unjust to conclude this preface without publicly acknowledging the great obligation which the author owe-t to the printer's reader while the sheets were [matting through the press. He seems to have entered into the very spirit of the book; his judgment has been sound, his queries have been intelligent, his suggestions invaluable, and even some of the articles were supplied by him.
