Dean Swift is a book written by Sophie Shilleto Smith and published in 1910. The book is a biography of Jonathan Swift, an Irish writer and satirist who is best known for his novel Gulliver's Travels. The book covers Swift's life from his childhood in Ireland to his rise to fame as a writer and his later years as a respected clergyman. It explores his relationships with important figures of his time, such as Alexander Pope and William Congreve, and delves into his personal life, including his love affair with Esther Johnson, who he called Stella. The book also provides insight into Swift's political views and his role in the political landscape of the time, including his involvement in the Tory party and his support for the Anglican Church. Overall, Dean Swift is a comprehensive biography that offers readers a detailed look into the life and work of one of the most important writers of the 18th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
