Edmond and Jules De Goncourt, 1895 
With Letters, and Leaves From Their Journals

Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. Daudet, Paul Bourget, and Zola, have written with the warmest admiration of their fiction, while the Diaries appeal to all readers, by the extreme pathos of the brotherly affection which they reveal, and the penetrating observation of life and litera ture which they record.
