As part of our on-going commitment to delivering value to the reader, we have also provided you with a link to a website, where you may download a digital version of this work for free. Many of the books in our collection have been out of print for decades, and therefore have not been accessible to the general public. Whilst the books in this collection have not been hand curated, an aim of our publishing program is to facilitate rapid access to this vast reservoir of literature. As a result of this book being first published many decades ago, it may have occasional imperfections. These imperfections may include poor picture quality, blurred or missing text. While some of these imperfections may have appeared in the original work, others may have resulted from the scanning process that has been applied. However, our view is that this is a significant literary work, which deserves to be brought back into print after many decades. While some publishers have applied optical character recognition (OCR), this approach has its own drawbacks, which include formatting errors, misspelt words, or the presence of inappropriate characters. Our philosophy has been guided by a desire to provide the reader with an experience that is as close as possible to ownership of the original work. We hope that you will enjoy this wonderful classic book, and that the occasional imperfection that it might contain will not detract from the experience.

Dry Dolly By VA Duck This book (116 pages) is an edition of the letters of Dolly Madison compiled by Mrs. Madison's Grand Niece, apparently of the same name as her subject. The structure of the book is: introductory sentences crafted by the editor, followed by one, often more, letters on the general topic of the introductory material. The letters included are both those written by Dolly Madison as well as those received.Short of the straightforward chronology - there is no other mechanism that binds the letters together and so the reader's attention is often left to wander. And, while Mrs. Madison was in many ways the 1st, "First Lady" in terms of Capital etiquette and protocol, the letters within this volume are rarely the topic of those elements that made up her influential and informative life. Additionally, the style of biography in the 19th century was "adoring" - often saccharine and overstated in style. An example (loc. 609): "During the eight years of her life as wife of the Secretary of State, she dispensed with a liberal hand and abundant wealth she prized so little, and the poor of the District loved her name as that of a household deity." Impartiality has been, "dispensed with liberal hand" by Grand-Niece - and the reader, left to trek through that depth of adulation soon becomes... disoriented & fatigued.Still, there is much to like and admire; Dolly Madison was a woman deserving of admiration, and there IS an endearing quality within her letters. Two stars only, however, because the book will come off as, "lightweight" history to nearly all modern readers. There MAY BE important clues to the life of the Madisons hiding within these letters, but for most of us (certainly me) those clues are better presented by the deft hand of a historian rather than the fond sentiment of lineage. Not recommended - but not as a snub of Dolly, rather because of a 21st century-perception of an ineffective presentation.-----kindle edition-----A simple e-Book publication; there are no illustrations, page numbers are neglected, there are no notes, or index, or bibliography. There is an occasional odd formatting error of incorrect line-break, or font change for no apparent reason. Still the original is a simple format and the publisher BIG BYTE BOOKS presents it adequately in electronic-book format, ★★★☆☆, adequate.
