Reseña del editor:
Designed for school districts, educators, and students seeking to maximize performance on standardized tests, Webster's paperbacks take advantage of the fact that classics are frequently assigned readings in English courses.

Biografía del autor:
Charles Kingsley was a professor of history, a novelist, and a parish priest. He wrote about Greek mythology and evolution - he was one of the first intellectuals to praise Darwin. His novels chief strength is their vivid natural description. Kingsley was associated with the Christian Socialism movement and with the phrase 'muscular Christianity,' which he detested. A remark of his denigrating Catholic clergy led to John Henry Newman's Apologia Pro Vita Sua.
