Excerpt from The Life of John Linnell, Vol. 1 of 2Some of John Linnell's views will doubtless be repugnant to many, to others there will be points of sympathetic contact - here with his almost ab sorbing love of Nature, there with his serene religious trust. So, while some will be charmed with his art, others may find it not altogether to their taste, but even these cannot fail to admire the strenuousness with which for years he laboured to attain his ends.Possibly some may say that I have gone into matters which were not necessary, and that I have in consequence been led into trivial details. My answer is that I wished to bring before my readers the whole and the real man, believing that by so doing I should confer a greater benefit upon the world than by producing something partial and incomplete.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
