| Reviews: |
1796-04 The Monthly Review: "New Hoyle, or the General Repository of Games...2s. 6d. sewed. Ridgway.
We apprehend that we shall not be expected to do more than announce this
publication. Our tribunal is not that before which these instructions must
be confirmed, or rejected. We believe, however, that the late Mr. Pigott was
well known in the earlier part of his life, as a frequenter of these
fashionable scenes of dissipation, which he afterward so severly satirized in
the persons of those who countenanced and appeared in them. He therefore,
probably, was qualified to write on the subject;—he who had largely paid
for his experience, and dearly bought his cynicism." (Google) |
