Synopsis

Excerpt from Henry Fielding: A Memoir, Including Newly Discovered Letters and Records With Illustrations From Contemporary Prints

Middlesex Records concerning his strenuous work as a London magistrate. The few letters by Fielding already known to exist have been doubled in number and a reason for the extraordinary rarity of these letters has been found in the unfortunate destruction, many years ago, of much of his correspondence. The charm of the one intimate letter that we possess from the pen of the Father of the English Novel,' that written to his brother John, during the voyage to Lisbon, enhances regret at the loss of these letters.
