Letters From A Citizen Of The World To His Friends In The East is a collection of fictional letters written by Oliver Goldsmith, an 18th-century Irish writer and poet. The book is set in the 1760s and follows the travels of the narrator, a wealthy merchant from China who travels to Europe and writes letters to his friends back home. In these letters, he describes his adventures and observations of European society, including its customs, politics, and social norms. Through his letters, the narrator also reflects on the similarities and differences between Eastern and Western cultures, and offers insightful commentary on the state of the world at the time. The book is a unique blend of travel writing, social commentary, and satire, and is considered a classic of English literature.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
