In this volume of selected letters of the novelist and poet George Meredith (1828-1909), the editor has included letters with such figures as Virginia Woolf (Stephen at the time), Paul Valery, Thomas Carlyle, Madame Daudet, Edmund Gosse, Alfred Tennyson, James Thomson and many others. The letters, most of them previously unpublished, reveal the myriad world of Meredith's life and thought. The selection includes the two earliest letters extant written by Meredith just after he had left Neuwied, his school in Germany. It also includes Meredith's first letter to Chapman & Hall concerning his project for the publication of his first volume of verse, and another Meredith wrote to the same publisher in connection with a cookery book which his first wife, Mary Ellen Peacock, was preparing for publication.

Excerpt from Letters of George Meredith, Vol. 1 of 2: 1844-1881 Place, the rendezvous of many people eminent in litera ture and science, was always open to him. The same is true in regard to Mrs. Drummond of Fredley, Mr. And Mrs. Frederick Jameson, and Mr. And Mrs. H. G. Plimmer, at whose house many of his happiest later days were spent. Very gratefully to be remembered are Mrs. Christopher Wilson and Sir Trevor and Lady Lawrence. I have further to express my sincere thanks to all those who have so readily placed at my disposition the bulk of the letters printed in these volumes. To my friends J. M. Barrie, Thomas Seccombe and Edward Hutton I am indebted for much advice and assistance. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
