Book synopsis

Excerpt from Essays on Christianity, Paganism, and Superstition The present edition is a reissue of the Works of Thomas De Quincey. The series is based upon the American Edition of De Quincey's Works, pub lished originally in twenty-two volumes. After that edition was issued, a complete English edition was published in Edinburgh and was edited and revised in part by the author. This edition con tained changes and additions, and the opportunity has been taken, in reissuing the American edition, to incorporate the new material which appeared in the English edition. At the same time, the arrangement of the several productions is more systematic and orderly than was possible when the collection was first made, at different intervals, under difficulties which render the work of the first editor especially praiseworthy. In the final volume, an introduction to the series sets forth the plan carried out in this new arrangement, and that volume also contains a very full index to the entire series. Throughout the series, the notes of the editor are distinguished from those of the author. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
