ODNB ‘Nares was a gifted humorist as well as an academic. He produced anonymously ‘Thinks-I-to myself’ ... (2 vols., 1811) and, encouraged by nine reprints within twelve months, followed it with ‘I Says, Says I’ (2 vols., 1812). Both texts were appreciated for their wry account of domestic life of the well-off in the early nineteenth century. Equally quirky was [the above] ... published anonymously and erroneously ascribed to Archdeacon Wrangham in the British Library catalogue. In his lifetime, his titles were often attributed to his cousin Archdeacon Nares.’ GBP 125.00 [Appr.: EURO 140.25 US$ 208.25 \| JP¥ 18525] Book number: 189684 Click here to order or inquire at Francis Edwards Booksellers.
