Excerpt from The Man Who Outlived HimselfThere were six of us who undertook the study of the noble Castilian tongue under most peculiar conditions. We were not very well equipped according to the notions of the schools, having but three books, if I remem ber rightly - the immortal story of Cervantes, a small spanish-french dictionary, and a Spanish Testament, with a vocabulary at tached. You generally held the text, by rea son of your proprietorship of the books, I suppose, or perhaps because you had some advantage over the others in having gathered knowledge of the pronunciation from a pre vious brief companionship with one whose authority on the subject was unquestionable.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
