This book is a trove of personal and professional correspondence that offers an intimate view of Jonathan Swift's life and career as an early 18th-century Anglo-Irish satirist, poet, and cleric.

These and similar passages contain a great deal of wild and violent invective against mankind, which has been perhaps too hastily adopted as expressive of Swift's actual sentiments. It ought, however, to be remembered, that if the Dean's principles were misanthropical, his practice was benevolent. Few have written so much with so little view either to fame or to profit, or to aught but benefit to the public.
