This vintage book contains Thomas Nashe’s 1594 novel, 'The Unfortunate Traveller: or, the Life of Jack Wilton'. A lively and adventurous work of prose fiction, this famous book follows Jack Wilton in his daring escapades in Europe as he becomes intertwined with various historical events of sixteenth century. A rollicking adventure full of amusing episodes and daring-do, 'The Unfortunate Traveller' constitutes a must-read for all lovers of English literature. Thomas Nashe (1567-1601) is widely hailed as the most accomplished of the English Elizabethan pamphleteers. Nashe was a poet, playwright, and satirist. Many vintage books such as this are increasingly scarce and expensive. We are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern edition complete with a specially commissioned new biography of the author.
