About the author

Thomas Wright

Thomas Wright

1859–1936

A prolific English biographer and editor, he devoted much of his work to literary lives and the history of Olney, the Buckinghamshire town with which he was closely associated. His books on figures such as Daniel Defoe, Walter Pater, and William Cowper helped preserve literary history for later readers.
