Excerpt from The Life and Correspondence of Arthur Penrhyn Stanley, Vol. 1: Late Dean of WestminsterIN January 1892 the materials for writing. The life of Dean Stanley between the years 1815 and 1860 were placed in my hands. The remainder was received in February 1893.Of Dean Stanley's personal kindness to myself I retain a grateful recollection; but from our relative ages it was impossible that I should have the per sonal knowledge of him which is essential for a biographer. So far as my deficiencies in this respect could be supplied, they have been made good by the constant assistance of the late Dean's relations and friends.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
