Produktbeschreibung

These essays were written over ninety five years ago, most of their subjects do not exist anymore. Despite this, the essays appear fresh, because the author's commentary about human nature, his observations about people, their thoughts, emotions are very perceptive and are true even today. While circumstances change, human nature does not change within just a hundred year. (Amazon)

A. G. Gardiner was a distinguished English essayist and journalist renowned for his lucid and whimsical prose. Born Alfred George Gardiner in 1865, he made a significant impact in the literary world through his work with various periodicals and through his own collections of essays. Gardiner's literary style is celebrated for its wit, charm, and accessibility, making his essays a pleasure to read for both the casual reader and the scholarly audience. His book 'Leaves in the Wind' exemplifies his mastery of crafting engaging essays that explore everyday topics with depth and insight, making them both reflective and entertaining. Gardiner's other works include 'Prophets, Priests, & Kings', 'Pillars of Society', 'The War Lords', and his notable 'Alpha of the Plough' essays, a pseudonym under which he wrote in the daily news. He acted as the editor of the 'Daily News' where he exercised considerable influence over public opinion during his time. Gardiner's prose shines with a humanistic approach and represents the early 20th-century essay form at its best. He passed away in 1946, but his contributions to English literature persist, marked by his exceptional ability to combine social commentary with personal observation, wit, and moral reflection.
