Excerpt from The Letters of an Englishman The essays contained in this book have been published in the columns of the Daily M ail. Though they treat of many subjects, they possess, I hope, that unity, which comes from a settled purpose and a consistent point of view. They rarely touch upon the fierce controversies of the moment. The Toryism, whose principles they would set forth, is the Toryism, not of politics, but of life and letters.
