Book Description: He had discovered its scope and possibilities only when it was too late to re cast his original design; and though Joseph Andrews has all the freshness and energy of a first attempt in a new direction, it has also the manifest disadvantages of a mixed conception and an uncertain plan. No one had perceived these defects more plainly than the author; and in Tom Jones he set himself diligently to perfect his new found method. He believed that he foresaw a 'new Province of Writing,' of which he regarded himself with justice as the founder and lawgiver; and in the 'prolegomenous, or introductory Chapters' to each book those delightful resting spaces where, as George Eliot says, 'he seems to bring his arm chair to the proscenium and chat with us in all the lusty ease of his fine English.'
