    Autobiography of Benvenuto Cellini Vol 2-Benvenuto Cellini
    Nov 13 2026
    Autobiography of Benvenuto Cellini Vol 2 by Benvenuto Cellini.

    Cellini's autobiographical memoirs, which he began writing in Florence in 1558, give a detailed account of his singular career, as well as his loves, hatreds, passions, and delights, written in an energetic, direct, and racy style. They show a great self-regard and self-assertion, sometimes running into extravagances which are impossible to credit. He even writes in a complacent way of how he contemplated his murders before carrying them out.

    Prayers and Meditations-Samuel Johnson
    Nov 12 2026
    Prayers and Meditations by Samuel Johnson.

    The prayers and meditations of Samuel Johnson, published posthumously by George Strahan to whom Johnson had entrusted the manuscripts. Johnson had been writing these down for over forty years. They often show him at his most repentant, melancholy and fragile -- and the book was controversial because of it -- but they also show the goodness, sense and strength which has always characterised this great man.

    Years of My Youth-William Dean Howells
    Nov 11 2026
    Years of My Youth by William Dean Howells.

    After the Civil War William Dean Howells served for 15 years as Assistant Editor and then Editor of the prestigious 'Atlantic' Magazine. For the remainder of the 19th Century he was a prolific and respected novelist. 'Years of My Youth' is his remembrance of his early years in Ohio, which he published in 1916 near the end of his life. The book spans the period from his earliest memories until his early 20s, at the beginning of the Civil War. The book is an unusually reflective chronicle that richly portrays the culture and issues of the 1840s and 1850s in the American Midwest.
