This volume contains detailed and insightful biographies of a number of seminal writers - including John Donne, Henry Wotton, Richard Hooker, George Herbert, and Dr. Robt. Sanderson. This fascinating collection of ¿lives¿ would make for a worthy addition to any bookshelf, and will be of considerable utility to those with an interest in great authors, their thoughts, and personalities. Izaak Walton (1594 - 1683) was an English writer. He is best remembered for writing "The Compleat Angler", but also penned numerous short biographies that were published under the title "Walton''s Lives". Many vintage texts such as this are increasingly scarce and expensive, and it is with this in mind that we are republishing this book now, in an affordable, high-quality, modern edition. It comes complete with a specially commissioned biography of the author.
