Reader's note

A 1946 first edition of The English Townsman by Thomas Burke. Shortly before his recent untimely death Thomas Burke completed the manuscript of The English Townsman., Essentially a townsman himself, the present work forms an especially fitting valediction for Burke, for in it he upholds the view that life of the Townsman is no less natural or traditional than that of the countryman. Readers of the companion works will not need to be reminded of the liveliness, erudition and novelty of quotation with which Burke works out his thesis. Beginning with mediaeval times the story carried through the Stuart, Georgian and Victorian periods to its conclusion with The Citizen of today.
