George Borrow Lord Of The Open Road Classic Reprint

Excerpt from George Borrow, Lord of the Open Road In the compilation of this volume I have constantly referred to George Borrow and his Circle, by Mr. Clement King Shorter, to the Guide Books on East Anglia, by the meticulous Barrovian, Mr James Hooper, to Mr. R. A. J. Walling's Life of Borrow, and the Literary Associations of East Anglia, by Mr. W. A. Dutt. My indebtedness to these authors is such as to call for the most unreserved acknowledgement.

Excerpt from George Borrow: The Man and His Books The late Dr. W. I. Knapp's Life (John Murray) and Mr. Watts-Dunton's prefaces are the fountains of information about Borrow, and I have clearly indicated how much I owe to them. What I owe to my friend, Mr. Thomas Seccombe, cannot be so clearly indicated, but his prefaces have been meat and drink to me. I have also used Mr. R. A. J. Walling's sympathetic and interesting "George Borrow." The British and Foreign Bible Society has given me permission to quote from Borrow's letters to the Society, edited in 1911 by the Rev. T. H. Darlow; and Messrs. T. C. Cantrill and J. Pringle have put at my disposal their publication of Borrow's journal of his second Welsh tour, wonderfully annotated by themselves("Y Cymmrodor," 1910). These and other sources are mentioned where they are used and in the bibliography. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from George Borrow: The Man and His Work One writing of Borrow since the publication of Dr. W. I. Knapp's Life, Writings, and Correspondence of George Borrow (murray, 1899) must of need acknowledge the invaluable services conferred upon the student by that monumental work. Its store Of documents is the harvest of a lifetime of devoted labour, and it bridges many a yawning gulf which aforetime left the Borrovian explorer disconsolate. In this monograph, where Dr. Knapp is directly quoted, the fact is generally mentioned either in the text or by way Of footnote; but it seemed fitting that there should be some more definite expression of my indebtedness to his affectionate diligence in those long and fruitful researches, which alone have made possible a consecutive story of Borrow's life.
