Overview
Spotlighting a unique essay in Romantic autobiography, this collection of Hazlitt’s works center around the painfully candid memoir of unrequited love—"Liber Amoris." Coupled with a wealth of related material drawn from the author's work—including memoirs, essays, sports writing, and a book of axioms—this edition also contains extensive explanatory footnotes, making this equally compelling to scholars and general readers alike.Author Biography
