This early work by Lady Holland was originally published in 1855 and we are now republishing it with a brand new introductory biography. 'A Memoir of the Reverend Sydney Smith - Volume II.' is a biography written by Smith's daughter that covers the events of his life and includes comments and background information on his writings. Sydney Smith was born on 3rd June 1771 in Woodford, Essex, England. Smith's first book 'Six Sermons, preached in Charlotte Street Chapel, Edinburgh' was published in 1800. He married Catharine Amelia Pybus in the same year and the couple settled in Edinburgh. While there, he helped set up the 'Edinburgh Review' and became its first editor in 1802. He continued to write articles for the review for the next quarter of the century which were a key element to the publication's success. His most famous work is 'Peter Plymley's Letters' (1892) in which he deals with the subject of Catholic emancipation, ridiculing the opposition of the country clergy.
