Publisher's Synopsis

The Sir Roger De Coverley Papers From The Spectator is a collection of essays written by the fictional character Sir Roger De Coverley, as published in the British magazine The Spectator in the early 18th century. The book, published in 1897, is a compilation of these essays, which are written in a satirical and humorous tone, and offer insight into the social customs and manners of the time. Sir Roger De Coverley is a wealthy landowner who is portrayed as a kind and benevolent figure, with a love for country life and a dislike for the excesses of city living. The essays cover a range of topics, from politics and religion to fashion and entertainment, and are presented in a conversational style that is both engaging and informative. The book provides a fascinating glimpse into the world of 18th-century England, and is a must-read for anyone interested in history, literature, or social commentary.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
