""A Book For A Rainy Day: Or Recollections Of The Events Of The Years, 1766-1833"" by John Thomas Smith is a memoir that recounts the author's experiences and observations of life in England during the late 18th and early 19th centuries. The book is divided into chapters that cover different periods of time in Smith's life, beginning with his childhood in the 1760s and ending with his retirement in 1833. Throughout the book, Smith provides vivid descriptions of the people, places, and events that he encountered, including his work as an engraver, his involvement with the Royal Academy of Arts, and his interactions with notable figures such as William Blake and Sir Joshua Reynolds. He also shares his thoughts on a variety of topics, including politics, religion, and social customs.The book is written in a conversational style and includes numerous anecdotes and personal reflections, giving readers a glimpse into the daily life and concerns of a person living in England during this time period. It is a valuable historical document that provides insight into the cultural and social milieu of the era, as well as the personal experiences of one individual who lived through it.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
