Présentation de l'éditeur
Introduction npHIS little Enchiridion, as its author called it, this compendium of cheerful rules for the conduct of life, has become so completely forgotten that London was scoured for a long time in vain before a copy could be found on which to base the present essay. Yet it was once, and for a long time continued to be, among the most popular of books.
