The Correspondence Of Leigh Hunt Volume 1 PDF Download

Excerpt from The Correspondence of Leigh Hunt, Vol. 1 of 2 The publication of these volumes has been delayed more than once by unexpected difficulties in procuring letters that were known to exist; and after all, there are deficiencies which I have been unable to supply. It is not that friends have been idle or dilatory; for in only a single instance was the application met with refusal - the representatives of an esteemed friend declining, on the ground that the communications addressed to him were so extremely private as to be unsuited for publication. All traces of correspondence with another eminent literary man had been destroyed. With these exceptions, I have to acknowledge nothing but extreme kindness, not from personal friends alone, but from those who are entire strangers to me, including several whose position and pressing duties might have been held to absolve them from any such claim.
