Originally published in 1905, this early work by E. V. Lucas is both expensive and hard to find in its first edition. It details the life of English essayist and children's author Charles Lamb. This is a fascinating work and is thoroughly recommended for anyone interested in famous literary figures. Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce. We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.
