The life story of a fictitious Edwardian English nobleman, illustrated with pictures cut out from a store catalogue.
E.V. Lucas was a versatile and popular English writer, whose nearly 100 books are acknowledged for their humorous lightness and refined style. He is best known for his essays and travel writings on London and foreign journeys, which have seen many editions. His works on the sport of cricket are still considered top-notch instructional material, and his biography of Charles Lamb is particularly prized. Lucas's polished essayist persona often concealed a cynical and bitter observer of the world, offering readers deeper insight into his complex personality and masterful prose.
