''Personal Reminiscences'' is a book compiled by Richard Henry Stoddard which features the personal recollections of three prominent figures in the literary and theatrical world of the 19th century: John Rutter Chorley, J. R. Planche, and Julian Charles Young. The book offers a rare glimpse into the lives of these individuals, who were all active in the cultural scene of their time. Chorley was a music critic and journalist, Planche was a playwright and costume designer, and Young was an actor and playwright. Through their reminiscences, readers can gain insight into the workings of the literary and theatrical worlds of the 19th century, as well as the personalities and relationships of these three influential figures. The book is a valuable resource for scholars and enthusiasts of literature, theatre, and cultural history.1874. From the Bric-a-Brac Series. The editor selected the three writers represented in this volume because they are contemporaries; they each knew the friends of the others, and recorded in some instances the impressions they made upon him; and that they introduce the reader to the intellectual life of the same period (Elizabethan). A wonderful collection of sketches by three talented men of their time.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
