Memoirs of Life and Literature (Classic Reprint) by W. H. Mallock Pdf
Excerpt from Memoirs of Life and Literature The Mallocks of Cockington - Some old Devonshire Houses - A Child's Outlook on Life. "Memoirs" is a word which, as commonly used, includes books of very various kinds, ranging from St. Augustine's Confessions to the gossip of Lady Dorothy Nevill. Such books, however, have all one family likeness. They all of them represent life as seen by the writers from a personal point of view; and in this sense it is to the family of Memoirs that the present book belongs. But the incidents or aspects of life which a book of Memoirs describes represent something more than themselves.
