The book Samuel Butler is a biography of the English author Samuel Butler, written by G. D. H. Cole. Samuel Butler was a Victorian-era writer who is best known for his satirical novel Erewhon and his posthumously published work The Way of All Flesh. In this biography, Cole provides a detailed account of Butler's life, including his upbringing, education, and literary career. He also explores Butler's personal relationships, including his difficult relationship with his parents and his marriage to his wife, whom he met while traveling in New Zealand. Throughout the book, Cole examines Butler's literary works and their reception by critics and the public. He also delves into Butler's views on religion, science, and society, which were often controversial and ahead of their time. Overall, Samuel Butler provides a comprehensive look at the life and work of a significant figure in English literature, shedding light on the cultural and intellectual landscape of the Victorian era.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
