This article presents information about the book "The Love Letters of Thomas Carlyle and Jane Welsh," edited by Alexander Carlyle. There is something in the very genre of love letters that makes for dullness and not even Thomas Carlyle and Jane Welsh could entirely overcome that tendency. Such letters are commonly the product of youth where the real epistolary charm is rarely attained before full maturity. More importantly is the light thrown by these letters on James A. Froude. The letters of Carlyle have printed agree with those written after his marriage in rendering such an hypothesis perfectly foolish.
