DOWNLOAD EBOOKExcerpt from The Life and Letters of Dr. Samuel Butler, Vol. 1: Head-Master of Shrewsbury School 1798-1836, and Afterwards Bishop of Lichfield; In So Far as They Illustrate the Scholastic, Religious, and Social Life of England, 1790 1840; Jan; 30, 1774 March 1, 1831 The following work was begun in 1889, and was completed in its original form by the summer of 1849. I was then so generally advised that it was too long that in the summer and autumn of 1895 I reduced it by about a third, and left it with in Mr. Murray in November 1895. The length of time during which the work has been in process must be accounted for firstly by the great bulk of the correspondence that came into my hands, and the difficulty of finding the due dates of many undated letters. Moreover I was deflected from it by the pressure put upon me to write my book Ex Voto, on the Sacro Monte of Varallo, and by some researches into the topography and authorship of the Odyssey the fascination of which I found it impossible to resist. To these delightful studies - hardly, however, to myself more delightful than those which I am now leaving - I hope immediately to return.
