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.

Excerpt from Letters of George Meredith, Vol. 1 of 2: Collected and Edited by His Son; 1844 1881 The Letters of George Meredith here brought: together have been printed first and foremost for his friends, and this fact must explain whatsoever may appear illogical, super uous, and maybe obscure in this book. The collection is not meant to form a narrative of his life, nor indeed does it profess to be complete. Many of his intimate friends, and a large number of his letters to them, do not for various reasons appear at all here. Very few letters, for instance, of the many written to Cotter Morison are available, the majority having been most unfortunately destroyed. Those written to Lionel Robinson, to Stephen Hamilton, and to Maurice Fitzgerald, if any indeed exist, are inaccessible, and few letters to Arthur Cecil Blunt and many others can be found. To the friends of his later years his letters were always rare: thus none appear to Lord Haldane, though a frequent visitor to Flint Cottage, and hardly any exist to John Deverell, a friend of long standing and one of his executors, or to Colonel and Mrs. Lewin.

Excerpt from Letters of George Meredith, Vol. 2 of 2 We have had Mr. Louis Stevenson in our Valley, staying with his wife and father and mother at the inn. He dined with me several evenings, and talked of you. We speculated on the impression produced by his costume de Boheme, which he seems to have adopted for good an innocent eccentricity at any rate.

Excerpt from Letters of George Meredith, Vol. 2 of 2 To Admiral Maxse. My dear Fred, - The news of the Governor is not so good as I had hoped, but often the changes are surprising, and health seems given from the hand, after a painful dragging on for weeks. I suppose things to be well with Olive. Your pen-sketches of scenery and the picture forwarded to Mariette give me a breath of the Riviera. But here also we have had Midsummer in March. Day upon day a cloudless heaven, strong sun-heat, flowers profuse, leaves bursting - a return of the bell'eta d'oro. At present I count five months of predominating S.W. wind. I have known winters as mild, but never followed by so soft a Spring. - (Interrupted by the call of a cleric, an amiable and a Liberal, who informed me in the course of the conversation that he had recently been entertaining a 'pure agnostic.' In reply I informed him that I should find it hard to hit on a friend of mine who was not a pure agnostic. He took it mildly.) - Morison was here on Saturday, did not sleep here, as he has to finish his Macaulay for the Series. He spoke of you, strongly appreciating you. He gave me a bad bit of news of Frederic Harrison's brother - thrown from his horse in the park and now lying in St. George's Hospital, paralysed all but two fingers: case apparently hopeless, and meanwhile his little girl has died of diphtheria. Nothing advances in the House of Commons. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
