Destination: or, Memoirs of a private Family. By Clara Reeve. 3 Vols. 12mo. 10s. 6d. sewed. Longman and Rees. 1799.
We believe that the memoirs of any private family would furnish a narrative as entertaining by the variety and importance of events as that which is contained in these volumes. The book, however, is not dull. The incidents, though neither affecting nor uncommon, are so likely to have happened, and the characters bear such a resemblance to many which we meet in the walks of life, that we perused the work with the pleasure of a calm unagitated curiosity.
