A Vindication of Lord Byron is a book written by Alfred Austin and published in 1869.

Austin argues that Byron’s poetry was misunderstood and that his private life should not detract from his literary achievements. The book also includes biographical information about Byron, as well as analysis of his major works, including Don Juan, Childe Harold’s Pilgrimage, and Manfred. Austin’s defense of Byron was influential in shaping the public perception of the poet and his legacy. A Vindication of Lord Byron is a must-read for anyone interested in the life and works of one of the most important poets of the Romantic era.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
