Excerpt from A History of France: From the Conquest of Gaul by Julius Caesar Continued to the Year 1878, With Conversations at the End of Each Chapter You know that your father and I have no wish more at heart than to promote the improvement and happiness of our children. I shall therefore have real pleasure in complying with your wishes, as far as my powers and Opportunities will permit; but you must give me more time for my task than, in your impatience, you seem willing to allow: for I shall have many books to read and refer to; and the more, because the French literature abounds with memoirs, which are not less entertaining, nor indeed instructive, than regular histories. Be assured, however, that I will do my best to make my little compilation worth your acceptance; and that, if I fail, it will not be for want of industry, nor from a want of desire to give you. Pleasure - Accept the prayers and best wishes of your father and mother for your health and happiness, with the kind love of your sister, and believe me ever, mv dear Richard.
