Excerpt from The Life of the Right Rev. John Milner, D. D: Bishop of Castabala, Vicar Apostolic of the Midland District of England, F. S. A. London, and Cath; Acad; Rome The author of this biography did not engage in it till after many solicitations. He strongly felt the difficulty and delicacy of the undertaking; and as strongly, his own inability for its accomplishment. But at length he considered that he ought no longer to resist the importunities of those, to Whom he owed respect and deference, and from Whom he was sure to receive aid and encouragement.

In this highly readable book John Milner writes of the life of the artist in Paris between 1880 and 1914 and discusses the economic, social, organisational and geographical factors which determined and controlled the artist's career, without the usual distortion caused by paying excessive attention to subsequent reputation.
