Letters From a Self-Made Merchant to His Son

Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. In issuing this selection of letters from the original book, we we desire to acknowledge our indebtedness to the publishers, Messrs. Small, Maynard and Company, for permission to use a certain number of these letters in this way, and also to the artists, 8. Martin Justice and F. R. Gruger, for the use of some of the illustrations. To those who enjoy reading these letters we heartily commend the complete work, which c'ontains a number of others equally entertaining and helpful.
