Excerpt from Memoir of Mrs. Hannah More: With Notices of Her Works, and Sketches of Her Contemporaries
If it be not admitted that Mrs. More was the most popular writer of the past age, it cannot be disputed that she was one of the most useful. Few individuals, in any age, have employed their pen in defending the truths, and elucidating the nature of Christian piety, with happier effect. All her productions were of a popular cast, suited to that numerous class who seek information in a form concise and interesting, and have little taste, and less time, for the perusal of voluminous works.
To this class the Author of these Memoirs has attempted to adapt this volume.
