Excerpt from The British Bibliographer, Vol. 1 Let not Ambition, nor a foul Desire, Nor Hate, nor Envy set my heart on fire; Revenge, nor Choler, no, nor Jealousy; And keep me from Despair and Cruelty Fond hepe expel, and I beseech thee, bless My soul from fear, and too much heaviness. But give. Me special grace to shun the vice That is so common; beastly Avarice: Yea, grant me power I not only know, But fly those evils, that from Passion flow. Moreover, now inspire my soul with Art, And grant me thy assistance to impart The rest of man's ill customs yet remaining, fluid their vain humours; that, by my explaining, They may perceive how odious I can make them, Blush at the reading, and at last forsake them. So let my Muse in this, and things to come, Sing to thy glory, Lord, or else he dumb. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from The British Bibliographer, Vol. 2 IF custom requires a Preface to this new volume, after what have preceded it as well in the censura literaria as in the former one oi_the present. Undertaking, it can hardly he expected that vye should Still enforce at much length the use of Bibliographical lmovvledge. Ji'he growing fashion of this pursuit has excited some obloquy, origi nating perhaps rather from a superficial than profound view of its tendency. It 18 so easy to spealc with scorn of a skill ln title pages, and all the numerous haters of books are so ready and so happy to join in the contempt, that it is caught 'withou't examination, and repeated with a senseless triumph.

Excerpt from The Bibliographer's Manual of English Literature, Vol. 1 of 6: Containing an Account of Rare, Curious, and Useful Books, Published in or Relating to Great Britain and Ireland, From the Invention of Printing In proportion to the advancement and general diffusion of literature ought to be the publication of references to, and accounts of, the multifarious works with which the genius of past and of the present times has enlightened and benefited mankind. Bibliography, or a knowledge of particular books, the peculiarities of editions, their value, and what may be termed an intimate acquaintance with the history and character of a work, has, however, been singularly neglected in this country; and rich as our literature is in most departments, that particular class, on which all others are in a great degree dependent, is confessedly deficient. In France, Spain, Italy, Germany, and Holland, numerous volumes have been written on the literary history of those several countries, together with others on universal literature; but in England, excepting a few catalogues of books on particular subjects, no general Bibliographical work deserving the name was ever published until the appearance of the "Bibliotheca Britannica" by Watt, which will be again alluded to. It is not intended to explain the cause of the low state of Bibliographical knowledge in England; but it may, perhaps, be partly ascribed to the folly of acquiring, at enormous prices, works which are no otherwise valuable than for their rarity, consisting, as that rarity sometimes does, in a colophon or the name of a printer, the texture or colour of the paper, the width of the margin, the occurrence or omission of a date, or even in an obvious defect. Mankind are disposed to remember the abuse rather than the utility of pursuits in which few are deeply interested; and in the ridicule which the enthusiastic zeal of bibliomaniacs has cast on Bibliography, they lose sight of the fact, that all accurate knowledge is in a greater or less degree absolutely dependent thereon.

Excerpt from The Bibliographer's Manual of English Literature, Vol. 1: Containing an Account of Rare, Curious, and Useful Books, Published in or Relating to Great Britain and Ireland, From the Invention of Printing Upon the utility of such information it is scarcely necessary to insist: without a Manual of this nature the collector may in deed, as is happily remarked by a French Bibliographer, form a collection, but not a library, since the one consists simply of a mass of books purchased without knowledge or discrimination of subjects or editions; but a library, by which is meant a selec tion of the best writers, and of the best editions, depends more upon the erudition, judgment, and taste of the possessor, than Upon his wealth or liberality.

Excerpt from List of Books Forming the Reference Library in the Reading Room of the British Museum, Vol. 1: Authors The first edition of the catalogue of books on the ground floor of the Reading Room was published by the Trustees under the title of List of the 'books of Reference in the Reading Room of the British Museum in the year 1859, two years after the present Reading Room was opened. It contained an introduction by Mr. J. Winter Jones, Keeper of Printed Books from 1856 to 1866 and Principal Librarian from 1866 to 1878, which gives the fullest account extant of the earlier state of the Library and of the origin and construction of the circular Reading Room and of the Iron Library which surrounds it. This introduction has been reprinted in the present work, and is well worth reading by all who are interested in the British Museum. A second edition was published in 1871 and a third in 1889, each recording the changes in the Reference Library and the improvements in the Reading Room which had taken place since its foundation.

Excerpt from Alexander Pope, Vol. 1: A Bibliography; Part II, Pope's Own Writings, 1735 1751 Dr. Sherburn, in a review of Part I of this Bibliography in Modern Philology, has added a number of books to those I had listed; and, by reading the newspapers in the British Museum for the years 1709 to 1730, and several hundreds of pamphlets,1 he has been able to establish exact dates for many books to which I had been able only to attach the title page dates; in several cases he has found an earlier month date of publication than the one I had set down. Dr. Case, in a similar article in a later number of Modern Philology, has continued the work with further additions. All students of the poet must feel grateful to these gentle men for placing their findings on record. To the end that all the bibliography of Pope may be brought together, I have included all this information in the section of Additions and Corrections at the end of this volume, with indications how the entries in Part I are to be revised thereby.
