    A classic selection of essays as well as an enduring reference. Bacon, Defoe, Swift, Pope, Fielding, Johnson, Hume, Lamb, Hazlitt, Shelley, Carlyle, Macaulay, Thackeray, Arnold, and Stevenson are some of the major essayists represented, and the choices here are judicious and reward repeated readings. A bit of a shame this old chestnut has been replaced by newer, inferior collections.
