Works of Tobias Smollett

"Novelist, playwright, journalist, historian, travel writer, critic, translator, editor, and compiler, Tobias Smollett (1721-71) was an eighteenth century man of letters in the fullest sense of the phrase. Though his writing has been variously gathered together over the last two centuries, no definitive scholarly edition of Smollett's works has ever been published. The Georgia edition, though not a complete collection, includes all those writings by which Smollett was best known in his own time and by which he is best remembered in ours."--Publisher's blurb.
