65 pages. A biographical sketch of Samuel Foote, the eighteenth century actor and wit. The article traces his career on the London stage, his talent for mimicry and satire, and the scandals that surrounded him. It reflects on his reputation among contemporaries and his posthumous standing, noting his burial in Westminster Abbey’s cloisters. The tone mixes anecdote, theatrical history, and a measure of critical appraisal. An authentic standalone article, extracted from a larger volume. Not a reprint or reproduction, but an original work in its own right. Preserved in a modern card cover, prepared for practicality - an unassuming but serviceable presentation that favours function over finery. Size: 18 x 26 cms. Category: Quarterly Review; Special Interest.
