    About this ebook

    Thomas Carlyle's historical narrative was published almost two centuries ago, yet it remains relevant and in demand. There are two reasons for this. As the definitive account of its time, it has arguably done more to frame the story for Anglo-Saxon audiences than any subsequent publication. It also is as engaging and colorful as a history book can be.

    Thomas Carlyle

    Thomas Carlyle was a Victorian-era Scottish author, philosopher, and historian. Raised by a strict Calvinist family, Carlyle abandoned his career with the clergy in 1821 after losing his faith, focusing instead on writing. Carlyle went on to publish such noted works as Life of Schiller, Sartor Resartus—which was inspired by his crisis of faith, and The French Revolution, and became one of the most prominent writers of his day. Carlyle’s later works included Heroes and Hero-Worship and Frederick the Great. Carlyle passed away in 1881.
