Starting with the notion that the best way to study literature is to read it, this 1917 overview takes the reader on tour—minimizing the amount of biography often found in these sorts of books. The book begins with the earliest Anglo-Saxon writings, and moves through the Renaissance, Shakespeare, Milton, the writers of the eighteenth and early nineteenth century, the Victoria era, and the modern world of Kipling, Conrad, Wharton and others.
