Correspondence of Richardson's Final Years (1755–1761)
«'The editors … have laboured hard tracking down almost all the names and references in Richardson's letters and they have provided extensive and illuminating notes and an entertaining introduction. My guess is the fastidious master printer Samuel Richardson would have approved of this volume.' Tibor Fischer, The Critic»
Samuel Richardson (1689–1761) was a prominent eighteenth-century printer and businessman as well as an important and influential English novelist. He was also a prolific letter writer. This volume in the first ever full edition of Richardson's correspondence offers a fascinating glimpse of the writer in his final years - at the height of his professional powers but facing the challenging circumstances of physical decline and commercial conflict.
