I better get my 8 random facts together! It'll have to wait a bit, though, since I'm at work now...but today...definitely today...
Oh, hey... What 19th century books do you have?
I've got one or two, myself. My favorite is "Historical Illustrations of the Fourth Canto of Childe Harold," by John Cam Hobhouse, published in 1819, if I remember right. I love looking at it on my bookshelf, but sadly, can't really pick it up and read it because it's too fragile.
Sowing and Reaping:
What will come of it
Mary Howitt 1869.
The Poetical Works of Mark Akenside by Rev. Alexander Dyce,

The Common Place Book of Poetical Works
