Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Verses by the Way: With a Critical and Biographical Introduction James Dryden Hosken was born at Helston, a small market town in the south-west of Cornwall, on June 14th, 1861. His father, Henry Hosken, was an iron-founder and a man of unusual attainments outside his trade, possessing (it is reported) a considerable stock of Greek and Latin, and much dexterity with the Mathematics: during the last years of his life, too, he made fair progress in the study of Hebrew. His death, in 1870, left his son to face a somewhat dismal childhood. The boy was but nine years old, and weak-chested: and the straitened economies of home could afford him no better education than that provided by the Helston National School.
