Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Letters Written by the Earl of Chesterfield to His Son, Vol. 2 of 3
I desire that, as soon as ever you get to Turin, you will apply yourself diligently to the Italian lan guage; that before you leave that place, you may know it well enough to be able to speak tolerably, when you get to Rome; where you will soon make yourself perfectly master of Italian, from the daily necessity you will be under of speaking it. In the meantime, I insist upon your not neglecting, much less forgetting, the German you already know which you may not only continue but improve, by speaking it constantly to your Saxon boy, and, as often as you can, to the several Germans you will meet in your travels. You remember, no doubt.
