Description
'Eminent Victorians' by Lytton Strachey is a landmark work of biography first published in 1918, offering sharply witty and critical portraits of four prominent Victorian figures: Cardinal Manning, Florence Nightingale, Thomas Arnold and General Gordon. Challenging the reverential tone of traditional Victorian biography, Strachey examines the contradictions, ambitions and private lives behind their public reputations.
