This vintage book contains the first volume of William Thackeray s 1857 novel, "The Virginians: A Tale of the Last Century." "The Virginians" is the tale of George and Henry Warrington; Henry Esmond's two grandsons. An amorous entwinement with an older woman results in Henry s enrolment in the British Army under the command of General Wolfe during the taking of Quebec. When the war of independence breaks out, he joins the revolutionary side, while his brother remains a British Officer. William Makepeace Thackeray (1811 - 1863) was an esteemed English novelist during the nineteenth century. He became famous for his satirical novels, the most important and influential of which was "Vanity Fair." Many antiquarian books such as this are increasingly scarce and expensive, and it is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition. It comes complete with a specially commissioned new biography of the author." Non sono state trovate descrizioni di biblioteche |
