Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Thomas Love Peacock: Letters to Edward Hookham and Percy B. Shelley With Fragments of Unpublished Mss
Few writers whose works have been ac cepted by their own countrymen as classics have failed to obtain like recognition from critics of other nations. Especially is this true of British and American authors. Broad as it is, the Atlantic has never been a dividing line in separating the poets, novelists and historians of the two countries, whose pro ductions all are merged in the one expressive phrase of English literature. And yet there have been rare exceptions. For some unex plainable reason Thomas Love Peacock is one of these. Not that his claims have ever been rejected by American readers and critics, but that they have never been duly and properly presented.
