Excerpt from John Pettie, R. A., H. R. S. A<br><br>I have tried to avoid approaching my subject in the partial Spirit which relationship Often engenders, and it is the more easy to Offer unprejudiced criticism in that I was but a boy when my uncle died. It has been my endeavour also to avoid dwelling overmuch on incidents and sayings that to others might seem uninteresting or trivial. One might multiply little traits Of character and relate end less acts of kindness and generosity, which to the general reader might prove but a wearisome repetition of the fact that Pettie was one Of the kindest and most generous of mankind.<br><br>About the Publisher<br><br>Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
