Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Book Without a Name, Vol. 1 of 2
The reason for not giving a name to the follow ing papers, is simply that their authors had no name to give. The golden age of literature, when titles for books were plenty as blackberries, when publications were few, readers many, and authors (in the Horatian phrase) were things to point the finger atr - that golden age is passed and gone. Now, every one writes, few have leisure to read; and an unpreoccupied title is more difficult to be met with, than the industry which goes to write a volume, or the enterprize that undertakes to publish it.
