Format:Paperback
A fascinating account of the life of this once internationally renowned novelist and former secretary to Pre-Raphaelite D.G. Rossetti. It traces the beginnings of Caine's life in Liverpool, his links to the Isle of Man and the rise of his star as an aspiring author. This book has been meticulously researched with useful appendices and black and white illustrations as well as references to Caine's own writings, his correspondences and the words and writings of his contemporaries. This book is not a dry academic study of the life of a forgotten novelist. Instead it paints a vivid picture of Caine's involvement with the artistic, dramatic and literary life of the latter half of the nineteenth century until the early twentieth. Those interested in aspects of this period will find it a useful resource as well as an informative well written read.
