Bag om Mr. Froude And Carlyle

""Mr. Froude and Carlyle"" by David Wilson is a biographical work that explores the complex relationship between two notable figures in Victorian literature and history: James Anthony Froude and Thomas Carlyle. Froude, a historian and author, was a close friend and biographer of Carlyle, a renowned philosopher, writer, and historian.

Through meticulous research and analysis of primary sources, including letters, diaries, and other documents, Wilson paints a vivid portrait of the complex dynamics between Froude and Carlyle, as well as the broader cultural and political context of Victorian England. Overall, ""Mr. Froude and Carlyle"" is a compelling and insightful work that sheds light on the lives and legacies of two important figures in Victorian literature and history, and their enduring impact on British intellectual and cultural life.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
