AN HISTORICAL ROMANCE, BY THE HON. GRANTLEY F. BERKELEY, M.P. IN THREE VOLUMES. VOL. I. LONDON: RICHARD BENTLEY, NEW BURLINGTON STREET. DEDICATION TO THE COUNTESS OF EUSTON. IN the Dedication of these volumes, the Author has the deepest gratification, not from any idea of their value, for of that he is diffident, but merely in the opportunity of proving his feelings for one whom he hath ever regarded with affection. As they are the first from his hand of this particular description which have sought the public praise, so has he naturally the greater anxiety for their success; and though at some future time he may produce a book more worthy of acceptance, still, he never can, one,-in the fate of which he will be so thoroughly interested. |
