EOTHEN
BY ALEXANDER W. KINGLAKE
REPRINTED FROM THE FIRST EDITION
WITH AN INTRODUCTION
BY THE REV. W. TUCKWELL
_The original Ill.u.s.trations_, _and a Map_.
"The Text is an accurate reprint of the first edition of 1844, and Kinglake's subsequent alterations are omitted and his omissions restored.
Even the singularly erratic and illogical punctuation is rigidly preserved. Thus in the words of the editor, the Rev. W. Tuckwell, 'we are brought nearer to the author, whom we love, by the intermediate transference into book form of his creations, fresh from his devising and correcting pen, and reflecting his joy in their production.'"-_Athenaeum_.
"The present one appeals to a different cla.s.s of reader from those who like the modern _format_ with fresh ill.u.s.trations, inasmuch as it is an exact reprint, with t.i.tle-page, of the first edition, preserving 'the eccentric punctuation of an ungrammatical Etonian in pre-local examination days,' and the original form of a good many pa.s.sages which were afterwards omitted or altered. The value of the reprint is much enhanced by an excellent introduction from the pen of the Rev. W.
Tuckwell, who remembers the sensation 'Eothen' caused at Oxford-even among the scouts-on its first appearance."-_Literature_.
"Alone of the famous books on Oriental sightseeing, it is again and again reproduced, and 'is devoured _senibus puerisque_ with unflagging freshness of enjoyment.'"-_Speaker_.
