About

These are words that I find slightly old-fashioned. I confess to reading a lot of Austen and Trollope as of late, which puts me in the mood for this list. N.B. These words don't come directly from my reading. My reading list just sets the tone.

Thanks, marky! I love these words. I'm especially fond of "insouciant."
