Summary

Lytton Strachey's classic work Eminent Victorians was an assault on the Victorian Age and its values. For this new edition the text it printed in its entirety, and there are also new critical afterwords by four experts, reassessing Strachey's judgments on his subjects and presenting each one in a fresh light. David Newsome writes on Cardinal Manning; John Pollock on General Gordon; Terence Copley on Dr. Arnold; and Mark Bostridge on Florence Nightingale. Textual notes and illustrations from the original manuscript are included, together with previously unpublished photographs.
