Omschrijving

A hopeful voice from the past speaks directly to today's young mind. A lettered bridge from uncle to nephew, offering steady guidance as adolescence gives way to study and self-possession. This slim, enduring volume realigns the ancient virtues with Victorian sensibility, presenting epistolary moral essays that chart etiquette and virtue guidance, from everyday conduct to the deeper disciplines of study and character. It chronicles adolescence to university life through steady, practical counsel-an invitation for youth readers to reflect on purpose, restraint, and the responsibilities that accompany learning. Far from dated sermonising, the letters read as intimate, human conversation-clear, inspiring, accessible, with a reverent nod to culture, faith, and duty. The collection resonates with readers who value thoughtful, enduring instruction and the romance of Oxford-bound learners. A note on literary and historical significance: the work captures a particular English educational ethos, offering a window into how families guided ambitious youths within Victorian England's context. It appeals to casual readers seeking a humane, beautifully written guide, and to classic-literature collectors who treasure antique educational collection artefacts and period instruction reimagined for modern shelves. Selling points: - Out of print for decades and now republished by Alpha Editions. - Restored for today's and future generations. - More than a reprint - a collector's item and a cultural treasure.
