Excerpt from Thomas Sopwith, 1891: With Excerpts From His Diary of Fifty-Seven YearsIt has long been known through the wide circle of his friends and acquaintances that the late Mr. Thomas Sop with left at his death a remarkable Diary. Two years ago the members of his family, who had the Diary in their charge, requested me, as an old friend of Mr. Sopwith, to make a study of the work, with the view of preparing from it a modest treatise of some four hundred pages at most, to include, with a brief life of its author, excerpts of some of the incidents which he has recorded. With all the diligence I could command I have herewith carried out the task entrusted to me, in the hope of keeping alive the memory of one of the most estimable, able, and honest Englishmen to whom the nineteenth century has given birth.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
