The Pleasures Of Retirement, Preferable To The Joys Of Dissipation (1774) (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781104663742)

""The Pleasures of Retirement, Preferable to the Joys of Dissipation"" is a book written by Charles Pinot Duclos in 1774. The book explores the benefits and joys of retirement, arguing that the peace and contentment that come with a life of leisure are far more satisfying than the fleeting pleasures of a life of dissipation. Duclos draws on his own experiences and observations to illustrate the many ways in which retirement can be a fulfilling and enjoyable phase of life. He also offers practical advice and suggestions for how to make the most of retirement, including the importance of cultivating hobbies, maintaining social connections, and staying active and engaged. Overall, ""The Pleasures of Retirement"" is a thoughtful and insightful reflection on the value of slowing down and enjoying the simple pleasures of life.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
