Book excerpt: Excerpt from Recollections of a Literary Life, Vol. 2 of 3: Or, Books, Places, and People Every one of any imagination, every one at all addicted to that grand art of dreaming with the eyes open, and building what are called castles in the air, has, I suppose, his own peculiar realm of dreamland, his own chosen country, his own favourite period; and from my earliest hour of fanciful idleness, down to this present moment, Spain, as it existed when the Moors ruled over the fairest part of that fair country, has been mine. It is probable that I am not singular in my choice. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
