Smollett's translation of Gil Blas remains true to its style, spirit, and ideas, chronicling a merry, philosophical young man whose adventures lead him into all levels of society from the highest to the lowest. After two and a half centuries, his remains the finest translation of this humorous, satiric, and classic French novel.
