Life and Letters of Bayard Taylor

Bayard Taylor

Description

Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. Which the man has kept before himself; and fortunately for the reader, Bayard Taylor re peatedly discloses in unmistakable language the dominant idea of his life By keeping that in mind one easily brings the various turns of an apparently changeable life into an order which explains every movement. Thanks are due to the several correspond ents of Bayard Taylor, who have generously contributed the letters which they held. These letters leave but few gaps to be filled. Per haps, if those which could not be secured had been accessible, they would have added noth ing material; yet the reader will share the re gret of the editors that the letters written to Mr. Putnam had been destroyed by fire, and that the absence of Mr. Howells from the coun try made it impracticable to obtain those which Bayard Taylor wrote to the former editor of the Atlantic Monthly.
