Excerpt from Daniel Defoe, Vol. 1 of 3: His Life, and Recently Discovered Writings, Extending From 1716 to 1729Century and a half have elapsed since the time when, according to the belief of all his biographers, Daniel Defoe retired from the political world. He had, for a whole generation previously, stood in the foremost rank of contro versial writers but the remainder of his life was supposed to have been spent in peaceful literary seclusion. Such statements have been heretofore received as unquestionable truth, and, but for a recent accidental discovery, the large collection Of his Journalistic Works now to be first published as his, would in all probability have been lost to the world for ever.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
