Synopsis

Book by Borrow George

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur :

It is with some diffidence that the author ventures to ofl Fer the present work to the public. The greater part of it has been written undei very peculiar circumstances, such as are not in general deemed at all favourable for literary composition :at considerable intervals, during a period of nearly five years passed in Spain in moments snatched from more important pursuits chiefly in ventas and posidas, whilst wandering through the country in the arduous and unthankful task of distributing the Gospel among its children. Owing to the causes above stated, he is aware that his work must not unfrequently appear somewhat disjointed and unconnected, and the style rude and unpolished: he has, nevertheless, permitted the tree to remain where he felled it, having, indeed, subsequently enjoyed too little leisure to make much effectual alteration. At the same time he flatters himself that the work is not destitute of certain qualifications to entide it to approbation.
