Some Eccentrics & a Woman [EPUB ebook] 

Of the eight papers printed here, “Some Eighteenth-Century Men About Town, ” “A Forgotten Satirist: ‘Peter Pindar’, ” “Sterne’s Eliza, ” and “William Beckford, of Fonthill Abbey, ” have appeared in the Fortnightly Review; “Charles James Fox” appeared in the Monthly Review, “Exquisites of the Regency” in Chambers’s Journal, and “The Demoniacs” in the American Bookman. To the editors of these periodicals I am indebted either for permission to reprint, or for their courtesy in having permitted me to reserve the right of publication in book form.
