The Works of Lord Bolingbroke: Volume 1 / Edition 1

by Henry St. John Bollingbroke

Overview

Published in 1967: Accuracy and impartiality have been studied in the following Biography, more than elegance and that labored eulogy, which so often defeats its purpose. The quick genius and diversified attainments of the author and the statesman, have not been allowed to cast a glare over the vices of the man and the specious hollowness of the pretended philosopher.
