To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Parker, Bernard Barton, and others. The two letters to Charles Gordon(30, 33), the three to Captain Leacroft (62, 63, 64), and the one toEnsign Long (vol. Ii. P. 19, 'note'), are printed from copies only. The old material stands in a different position. Efforts have been madeto discover the original letters, and sometimes with success. But itstill remains true that, speaking generally, the printed text of theletters published by Moore, Dallas, Leigh Hunt, and others, has not beencollated with t...he originals. The fact is important. Moore, who, it isbelieved, destroyed not only his own letters from Byron, but also manyof those entrusted to him for the preparation of the 'Life', allowedhimself unusual liberties as an editor. The examples of this licencegiven in Mr. Clayden's 'Rogers and his Contemporaries' throw suspicionon his text, even where no apparent motive exists for his suppressions. But, as Byron's letters became more bitter in tone, and his criticismsof his contemporaries more outspoken, Moore felt himself more justifiedin omitting passages which referred to persons who were still living in1830.
