Book excerpt: The Diary of an Ennuyee by Mrs. (Anna) Jameson Calais, June 21.-What young lady, travelling for the first time on the Continent, does not write a "Diary?" No sooner have we slept on the shores of France-no sooner are we seated in the gay salon at Dessin's, than we call, like Biddy Fudge, for "French pens and French ink," and forth steps from its case the morocco-bound diary, regularly ruled and paged, with its patent Bramah lock and key, wherein we are to record and preserve all the striking, profound, and original observations-the classical reminiscences-the thread-bare raptures-the poetical effusions-in short, all the never-sufficiently-to-be-exhausted topics of sentiment and enthusiasm, which must necessarily suggest themselves while posting from Paris to Naples. Verbiage, emptiness, and affectation! Yes-but what must I do, then, with my volume in green morocco? Very true, I did not think of that. We have all read the Diary of an Invalid, the best of all diaries since old Evelyn's.- Well, then, -Here beginneth the Diary of a Blue Devil. We are delighted to publish this classic book as part of our extensive Classic Library collection. Many of the books in our collection have been out of print for decades, and therefore have not been accessible to the general public. The aim of our publishing program is to facilitate rapid access to this vast reservoir of literature, and our view is that this is a significant literary work, which deserves to be brought back into print after many decades. The contents of the vast majority of titles in the Classic Library have been scanned from the original works. To ensure a high quality product, each title has been meticulously hand curated by our staff. Our philosophy has been guided by a desire to provide the reader with a book that is as close as possible to ownership of the original work. We hope that you will enjoy this wonderful classic work, and that for you it becomes an enriching experience.
