There are moments in which every man is apt to imagine that the history of his own life is the most important of all histories. The gloom and sunshine with which my short existence has been chequered lead me to suppose that a narrative of these vicissitudes may be interesting to others as well as to myself.

Soft cover. Condition: Very Good. 1st University University Press Edition. Paperback. The Adventures of Hugh Trevor. The novel epitomizes some of the notions of English Dissent and the French Enlightenment in the career of the virtuously triumphant hero through a world of personal and institutional corruption. The central figure is between Hugh Trevor and Wakefield, an attractive but immoral trickster whose conversion is the novel's central concern. Englightened reason wins in the end over emotionalism and selfish cunning. The author presents a moral position in which reason and feeling complement each other in a way of life characterized by altruism and candour. 511 pp. (We carry a wide selection of titles in The Arts, Theology, History, Politics, Social and Physical Sciences. academic and scholarly books and Modern First Editions, Reference books ,and all types of Academic Literature.).
