Vol. IX. (of XXI.) by Thomas Carlyle]@TWC D-Link book Vol. IX. (of XXI.) 21/28 [Buchholz, _Neueste Preussisch-Brandenburgische Geschichte_ (berlin, 1775, 2 vols. 155 n.] Buchholz, after "his student time," became a poor Country-schoolmaster, and then a poor Country-Parson, in his native Altmark. His poor Book is of innocent, clear, faithful nature, with some vein of "unconscious geniality" in it here and there;--a Book by no means so destitute of human worth as some that have superseded it. This was posthumous, this "NEWEST HISTORY," and has a LIFE of the Author prefixed. |
