Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Swift: The Mystery of His Life and Love
Some of his biographers have been revilers, like Lord Orrery; others have been prejudiced, like Johnson; some have been incapable, like Hawkes Worth; others have been dull, like Sheridan; some have been inaccurate, like Sir Walter Scott, for want of time; and others have been absurd, like Deane Swift, Esq., for want of judgment; while others have been malignant, like Winder, and have tried to blacken his character, who were not fit to blacken his shoes.
