Mr T. at his best!By Kindle CustomerBeing part English and not always proud of it, I delighted in reading this nearly 900-page kindle book. It took me over 12 days of almost non-stop reading. I read slow! I got that flu so this book is how I recovered. Not that I am up on Old English history, poetry, folklore and what- have-you but it was worth reading especially with all the first-hand accounts of the succession from the mother country including names of their Generals, battles and many American heroes were included. SO very fascinating! I loved every minute especially the clean non-graphic accounts of marital bliss and other odd relationships that were woven in as back stories. Mr. T. is one of the finest Novelists of the 18th/19th Century. No one holds a candle to his word-play, puns and visual word-pictures. We are right there in the moment. We are living in the mansions, eating with the guests, playing cards with the table-gamers and losing our money, cassocks, shirts and the even a plantation or two. Although one things is for sure, we are not really losing anything but our time. After the tenth day, my husband looks over from the dishpan and says, "Dear, why don't you pick out a book of the Bible"? I say, This isn't just any book dear, this is American History"! I finish it two days later. I recommend this novel to anyone who has twelve days+ to toss away.1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. A Novel of Former Times and StyleBy eyecon :/ vvv vv7A Novel of a Former Time and style. The story deals with customs and ideals which seem quite dated to today;s reader. Thus, in reading this novel we have a glimpse into thoughts and standards of conduct which are no longer apparent or applicable to our 21st century life. et the desire to have one;s dignity and heritage have survived . this seems to give value and weight to the book.2 of 2 people found the following review helpful. OkBy Katie PrestwichThis book was ok but a little tedious. I really liked the characters at first, but they started to get on my nerves after a while. There was some interesting history and some good parts, but I would say the book as a whole was just average. It is the sequel to the History of Henry Edmond, Esq, and I would recommend reading that first as there are lots of allusions made to events that happened in that book, although this book takes place a while later and has different characters (descendants of characters in Henry Edmond). 'The Virginians', a sequel to William M. Thackeray's 'Henry Esmond', is a fictional history of Henry Esmond's daughter, Madam Esmond of Castlewood estate in Virginia, and her twin sons, George and Henry Warrington. George, born a half hour before his brother Harry could not have been more different from his brother. George loved books and had a more earnest, serious and introspective disposition than the younger Harry, who loved sports, gambling (especially card playing) and had an out-going and fun loving nature. George was also a playwright, if not an altogether successful one. For a long while Harry is believed to be the soul surviving brother and heir to Castlewood, and is treated by everyone as such. For all their differences, no two brothers ever loved or were as devoted to one another more. This long and sometimes meandering, but often energetically narrated novel, set both in England and in Virginia, recounts the brothers' relationships with their class-conscious British cousins, particularly Harry's with his cousins Maria, with whom he has dutifully promised to marry, and Will, as irrascible and unpleasant a man as one is likely to meet in a novel. The saintly Lambert family, who nurse Harry back to health after he falls from a horse become thereafter a very important part of Harry's life. The French and Indian Wars in North America and the American Revolution form a critical backdrop in the novel and provide some of its most stirring scenes. George and Harry fight on opposite sides during the Revolution, with George taking the side of the Royalists loyal to King George III and Harry eventually becoming a general, serving alongside George Washington. Washington is presented up close and in person as never before seen in a novel, first as a young man and potential suitor to the brothers' widowed mother, and later as the mature commander-in-chief of the Continental Army of the new American Republic. While Madam Esmond is generally an unsympathetic and meddlesome woman, especially regarding potential marriages of her sons to women she finds unsuitable, she is undoubtedly courageous in her protection of Castlewood during the years of the Revolution, even as she maintains a staunch allegiance to the wrong side. About the AuthorWilliam Makepeace Thackeray (18 July 1811 ndash; 24 December 1863) was an English novelist of the 19th century. He was famous for his satirical works, particularly Vanity Fair, a panoramic portrait of English society.

Thackeray's father passed away four years later, and young William was sent to boarding school in London. Many of his early experiences in India and later in boarding school found their way into several of his popular works, including Vanity Fair and The Newcomes. After his premature departure from Cambridge University and a half-hearted attempt at law school in 1834, Thackeray moved to Paris to concentrate on his art. While studying there, he met and married Isabella Getkin Creach Shawe (1818-1893). The couple had three daughters, Anne Isabella, Harriet Marrian, and Jane who died at age eighteen months. Soon after her daughter's death, Isabella Thackeray suffered a nervous breakdown from which she never recovered. Thackeray was then left with the responsibility of raising two young daughters and supporting his wife who would remain in various sanitoriums for the rest of her life.

  • VANITY FAIR by William Makepeace Thackeray
    VANITY FAIR by William Makepeace Thackeray THE AUTHOR William Makepeace Thackeray (1811-1863) was born in Calcutta to Anglo-Indian parents. His father held the post of Collector (the same position held by Jos in Vanity Fair), but died when William was four years old. He was then sent to England to attend boarding schools, while his mother remained in India to marry her childhood sweetheart. Thackeray was not a good student, finding his lessons boring and escaping by reading popular fiction. Though he did succeed in gaining entrance to Cambridge, he spent most of his time drinking and gambling, then dropped out after two years. After leaving Cambridge, he spent time in Weimar on the Continent (the Pumpernickel of Vanity Fair), where he encountered for the first time the literature and religious skepticism of the Romantic Movement. Returning to England, he attempted briefly to immerse himself in the study of law, and then purchased a weekly newspaper, which soon failed. His substantial inheritance from his father was lost through the failure of the Indian bank with whom the funds were deposited, and he then found himself faced with the necessity of working for a living to support himself, and later his wife and their young children. He chose the life of a journalist, writing and drawing for a number of magazines and newspapers, including Punch. While freelancing for ten years, he produced a variety of fictional works, the best-known of which were Barry Lyndon (1844) and The Book of Snobs (1846-7), along with essays and travel books.

  • William Make Peace Thackeray
    William Makepeace Thackeray, (born July 18, 1811, Calcutta, India—died Dec. 24, 1863, London, Eng.), English novelist whose reputation rests chiefly on Vanity Fair(1847–48), a novel of the Napoleonic period in England, and The History of Henry Esmond, Esq. (1852), set in the early 18th century. Thackeray was the only son of Richmond Thackeray, an administrator in the East India Company. His father died in 1815, and in 1816 Thackeray was sent home to England. After attending several grammar schools Thackeray went in 1822 toCharterhouse, the London public (private) school, where he led a rather lonely and miserable existence. He was happier while studying at Trinity College, Cambridge (1828–30). In 1830 he left Cambridge without taking a degree, and during 1831–33 he studied law at the Middle Temple, London. He then considered painting as a profession; his artistic gifts are seen in his letters and many of his early writings, which are amusingly and energetically illustrated. He started his career as a hardworking and prolific professional journalist. The 19th century was the age of the magazine, which had been developed to meet the demand for family reading among the growing middle class. In the late 1830s Thackeray became a notable contributor of articles on varied topics to Fraser’s Magazine, The New Monthly Magazine, and, later, to Punch. His work was unsigned or written under such pen names as Mr. Michael Angelo Titmarsh, Fitz-Boodle, The Fat Contributor, or Ikey Solomons. Major Gahagan (1838–39), a fantasy of soldiering in India; Catherine (1839–40). The History of Samuel Titmarsh and the Great Hoggarty Diamond (1841), The Luck of Barry Lyndon (1844; revised as The Memoirs of Barry Lyndon, 1856), which is a historical novel and his first full- length work.

  • NCL6701 02 Gilmore 29..57
    The Difficulty of Historical Work in the Nineteenth-Century Museum and the Thackeray Novel DEHN GILMORE ¬ – N The Newcomes ( ), his famously “baggy” novel about the development of would-be painter Clive Newcome, William Makepeace Thackeray is rarely economical in his expression. Yet late in the lengthy work a notable exception occurs, and as he proclaims his efforts at offering “true” history (via the lips of his chronicling persona, Pendennis), Thackeray approaches a concise delineation of some potential outcomes for historical practice. In the words of Pendennis, the writer-editor of a history inevitably makes choices; he “dresses up the narrative in his own way,” or he “commits blun- ders, which the critics will discover.” Accordingly, the historian’s craft seems destined to be just that—a complex and multifarious labor of production and reconstruction—and proximity, whether Nineteenth-Century Literature, Vol. , No. , pp. –.

    INFORMATION TO USERS This was produced from a copy of a document sent to us for microfilming. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the material submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or notations which may appear on this reproduction. 1.The sign or "target” for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page(s)” . If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting through an image and duplicating adjacent pages to assure you of complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a round black mark it is an indication that the film inspector noticed either blurred copy because of movement during exposure, or duplicate copy. Unless we meant to delete copyrighted materials that should not have been filmed, you will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. If copyrighted materials were deleted you will find a target note listing the pages in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., is part of the material being photo­ graphed the photographer has followed a definite method in "sectioning” the material. It is customary to begin filming at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue from left to right in equal sections with small overlaps. If necessary, sectioning is continued again—beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete.

She lacked the skill to do it herself, she explained, and hiring someone else would be unwise because her characters, “mostly unattractive to look at,” should not be subjected to the idealization that “common-place illustrators” practiced. For her, the sole and supreme exception was William Makepeace Tackeray: How he can render with a few black lines and dots, shades of expression so fne, so real; traits of character so minute, so subtle, so difcult to seize and fx—I cannot tell; I can only wonder and admire. Tackeray may not be a painter, but he is a wizard of a draughtsman; touched with his pencil, paper lives.1 In 1848, when she made this assessment, she was still writing as Currer Bell and distancing herself from the literary eminence that Tackeray had sought for eleven grinding years.
