EOTHEN
BY ALEXANDER W. KINGLAKE
REPRINTED FROM THE FIRST EDITION
WITH AN INTRODUCTION
BY THE REV. W. TUCKWELL
_The original Illustrations_, _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.’”—_Athenæum_.
“The present one appeals to a different class of reader from those who
like the modern _format_ with fresh illustrations, inasmuch as it is an
exact reprint, with title-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 passages 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_.
