George Selwyn and the Wits is a book written by S. Parnell Kerr in 1909. It is a biography of George Selwyn, a prominent figure in 18th century British society. Selwyn was known for his wit and charm, and he was a member of the exclusive group of intellectuals and socialites known as the Wits. The book provides a detailed account of Selwyn's life, from his early years as a member of Parliament to his later years as a socialite and patron of the arts. It also explores the lives of other members of the Wits, including Horace Walpole, Samuel Johnson, and David Garrick. Through anecdotes and historical accounts, the book offers a glimpse into the world of 18th century British high society and the cultural and political events of the time. Overall, George Selwyn and the Wits is a fascinating look at the life of a remarkable man and the society in which he lived.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
