Letters of Washington Irving

Abstract

This article is the second part of the article "Seven Letters of Washington Irving" published in the previous issue of The Journal (9:1). These four Irving letters here printed, dated nearly a year later (April-December 1805) were addressed to his brothers Peter and William Irving and to a friend, Andrew Hicks, and give us glimpses of Irving during the second half of his first visit to Europe from Italy to Paris and London.
