The Modern Chesterfield: A Selection of Chesterfield's Letters to His Son (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Synopsis
Excerpt from The Modern Chesterfield: A Selection of Chesterfield's Letters to His Son
This edition of the famous letters was inspired by words of Dr. Johnson, written so long ago that the United States of America was at the time declaring her Independence. The original edition had just been published, and some comment was due from the choleric Doctor, notwithstanding his aversion to their author. History has embalmed his words.
