Memoirs of Remarkable Misers V1 is a book written by Cyrus Redding and was first published in 1863. The book is a collection of stories about individuals who were known for their extreme frugality and miserliness. These people were so obsessed with saving money that they would go to great lengths to avoid spending it, even if it meant living in squalor or depriving themselves of basic necessities.The book is divided into several chapters, each focusing on a different miser and their unique story. Some of the misers featured in the book include John Elwes, who inherited a fortune but lived in poverty and refused to spend any money, and Daniel Dancer, who lived in a small hut and ate only turnips.The author provides detailed accounts of these misers’ lives, including their childhoods, their sources of income, and their eccentricities. He also explores the psychological and social factors that may have contributed to their extreme frugality.Overall, Memoirs of Remarkable Misers V1 is an interesting and informative read for anyone interested in the history of extreme frugality and the psychology behind it.In Two Volumes.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
