About this book
Three works by Thackeray share this volume, edited with an introduction by George Saintsbury and carrying fifteen illustrations. Henry Esmond is a novel told by Esmond himself, from his youth at Castlewood Hall and Cambridge through army service in the campaigns of 1704 to 1708, the battle of Wynendael, and a final chapter dated August 1st, 1714. The English Humourists gathers six lectures on Swift, Congreve and Addison, Steele, Prior, Gay and Pope, Hogarth, Smollett and Fielding, and Sterne and Goldsmith. The Four Georges offers sketches of the four kings of that name.
