My Top Ten Poems of the Nineteenth Century

"A great collection of short stories. The best, in my estimation, The Aerial Burglar, A Visit to the Lunar Sphere, and The Iron Shroud. But all the others are also worth the read. Also can be read on a cold, windy, rainy/snowing night."

“Literature is the most noble of professions. In fact, it is about the only one fit for a man. For my own part, there is no seducing me from the path. I shall be a litterateur, at least, all my life; nor would I abandon the hopes which still lead me on for all the gold in California.”
