Chaucer for Children A Golden Key Classic Reprint

Excerpt from Chaucer for Children: A Golden KeyIn revising Chaucer for Children for a New Edition, I have fully availed myself of the help and counsel of my numerous reviewers and correspondents, without weighting the book, which is really designed for children, with a number of new facts, and theories springing from the new facts, such as I have incorporated in my Book for older readers, Chaucer for Schools.Curious discoveries are still being made, and will continue to be, thanks to the labours of men like Dr. F. J. Furnivall, and many other able and industrious scholars, encouraged by the steadily increasing public interest in Chaucer.I must express my sincere thanks and gratification for the reception this book has met with from the press generally, and from many eminent critics in particular; and last, not least, from those to whom I devoted my pleasant toil, the children of England.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
