The Glory of English Prose: Letters to My Grandson is a collection of letters written by Stephen Coleridge to his grandson in 1922. The book is a tribute to the beauty and power of the English language, particularly as it is used in prose writing. Coleridge, a writer and poet himself, shares his insights and observations on some of the greatest works of English literature, from Shakespeare and Milton to Dickens and Thackeray. He also discusses the importance of clear and effective writing, offering advice on how to improve one's own prose. Throughout the book, Coleridge emphasizes the value of literature as a means of understanding and appreciating the world around us, and encourages his grandson to develop a lifelong love of reading and writing. This book is a timeless tribute to the art of English prose, and a valuable resource for anyone interested in improving their writing or deepening their appreciation of literature.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
