About this book

Elbert Hubbard describes the homes of authors, poets, social reformers and other prestigious people, reflecting on how their surroundings may have influenced them.

In this volume he reflects on the lives of English authors, among them William Morris, Alfred Tennyson, John Milton, Samuel Coleridge, Lord Byron, and Benjamin Disraeli. (Summary by Lucy Perry, adapted by Ava) This is Volume 5 in a series of 14 books.
