Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Works of Tobias Smollett, Vol. 3: The Adventures of Peregrine Pickle
Zounds! I '11 cut the throat of any scoundrel who has the presumption to suppose that I don't play as honourably as e'er a nobleman in the kingdom and I insist upon an explanation from you, sir; or, by hell and brimstone! I shall expect other sort of satisfaction. Peregrine (whose blood by this time boiled within him) answered without hesitation, Far from thinking your demand unreasonable, I will immediately explain myself without reserve, and tell you, that, upon unquestionable authority, I believe you to be an impudent rascal and common cheat.
