The Life of Froude


Book Description

In this biography, we are introduced to the life of James Anthony Froude, the renowned English historian, novelist, biographer, and editor of Fraser's Magazine. Raised amidst the Anglo-Catholic Oxford Movement, Froude had initially intended to become a clergyman. However, doubts about the doctrines of the Anglican church, which he expressed in his controversial novel 'The Nemesis of Faith,' caused him to abandon his religious career. Froude went on to become one of the most celebrated historians of his time, known for his work 'History of England from the Fall of Wolsey to the Defeat of the Spanish Armada.' This book provides a fascinating insight into the life of a complex and talented individual who made a significant contribution to English literature and history.
