Masterpieces From Charles Kingsley is a collection of selected works by the renowned British author, Charles Kingsley. The book was originally published in 1893 and contains some of Kingsley’s most famous writings, including his novel Westward Ho!, which tells the story of a group of adventurers who set sail for the New World in search of fortune and glory. In addition to Westward Ho!, the book includes other notable works such as The Water-Babies, a children’s book that has become a classic of English literature, and Hypatia, a historical novel set in ancient Alexandria that explores themes of religious conflict and intellectual freedom. The collection also features some of Kingsley’s lesser-known works, such as his essays on social and political issues, as well as his poetry. Throughout the book, readers will encounter Kingsley’s distinctive voice and style, which are characterized by a deep concern for social justice, a love of nature, and a strong Christian faith. Overall, Masterpieces From Charles Kingsley is an excellent introduction to the work of one of the most important English writers of the 19th century, and a must-read for anyone interested in Victorian literature and culture.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
