The Autocrat Of The Breakfast Table
By Oliver Wendell Holmes
Published by Ward, Lock & Co Limited: London 1910

" Oliver Wendell Holmes Sr. (August 29, 1809 - October 7, 1894) was an American physician, poet, and polymath based in Boston. Grouped among the fireside poets, he was acclaimed by his peers as one of the best writers of the day. His most famous prose works are the "Breakfast-Table" series, which began with The Autocrat of the Breakfast-Table (1858). He was also an important medical reformer. In addition to his work as an author and poet, Holmes also served as a physician, professor, lecturer, inventor, and, although he never practiced it, he received formal training in law."
