Travels Through France And Italy by Tobias Smollett (fastest ebook reader .txt) π

Of Celebrating With Befitting Honour The Second Centenary Of The
Birth Of Henry Fielding; But It Is More Than Doubtful If, When
The Right Date Occurs In March 1921, Anything Like The Same
Alacrity Will Be Shown To Commemorate One Who Was For Many Years,
And By Such Judges As Scott, Hazlitt, And Charles Dickens,
Considered Fielding's Complement And Absolute Co-Equal (To Say
The Least) In Literary Achievement.
