About this title

Synopsis

Thomas Love Peacock was a lifelong and assiduous letter writer at a time when the letter was often an art-form in itself. He had a wide circle of friends and correspondents which included Shelley and many Radicals of the early nineteenth century. For the first time, this two-volume edition gathers together Peacock's extensive correspondence with scholarly annotation.
