Description:
|
Napier writes of his health, Hamilton’s visit to Margate and the types of books that she has been reading. Napier is happy to hear that Hamilton has been reading but she knows that he does not ‘approve of reading books of controversy’. He believes that such books are bad for all but particularly for young women and the letter continues on this subject. Dated at Edinburgh.
