Reproduction of the original: Life and Letters of Thomas Henry Huxley by Leonard Huxley
This three-volume work is the 1903 second edition of the biography and selected letters of 'Darwin's Bulldog', T. H. Huxley.
Thomas Henry Huxley: A Character Sketch by Leonard Huxley is a biography about an English biologist and anthropologist specializing in comparative anatomy written by his son. Excerpt: "Thomas Henry Huxley was born ten years after Waterloo, while the country was still in the backwash of the long-drawn Napoleonic wars. It was a time of material reconstruction and expansion, while social reconstruction lagged sadly and angrily behind. The year of his birth saw the first railway opened in England; it was seven years before electoral reform began, with its well-meant but dispiriting sequel in the new Poor Law."
Thomas Henry Huxley (1825-1895) was one of the intellectual giants of Victorian England. A surgeon by training, he became the principal exponent of Darwinism and popularizer of "scientific naturalism." Huxley was a prolific essayist, and his writings put him at the center of intellectual debate in England during the later half of the nineteenth century. The Major Prose of Thomas Henry Huxley fills a very real and pressing chasm in history of science books, bringing together almost all of Huxley's major nontechnical prose, including Man's Place in Nature and both "Evolution in Ethics" and its "Prolegomena."
