Add to basketHardcover. Condition: Very Good. In "Prophets, Priests, and Kings", Mr. Alfred George Gardiner, who was also known by the pseudonym of "Alpha of the Plough", presents a collection of genial essays, which in some way are brief biographical excerpts, but for the most part are Mr. Gardiner's personal views of the individual chosen.… They are a goodly assortment, some of which will be familiar to all, and others may have retired to the dusty corners of history's back shelves. Some of them were, in fact, kings and heads of states, some priests . and all of them held considerable sway over the social and intellectual topics of their day. They were shakers and movers. Some moved very little . others made waves that are still being felt today. There are handsome reproductions of portraits of some of the subjects rendered by Clive Gardiner. This is a reprint, issued by J. M.Dent in its Wayfarer's Library in 1914. (The book was originally issued in 1908). CONTENTS : Included are essays on the following historical personages: ** King Edward VII ** George Bernard Shaw ** Arthur James Balfour ** John Singer Sargent ** George Meredith ** The Premier ** The Kaiser ** Sir Edward Grey ** James Keir Hardie ** Lord Northcliffe ** Dr. Clifford ** John Redmond ** Florence Nightingale ** The Primate ** David Lloyd George ** Mrs. Pankhurst ** Lord Moreley of Blackburn ** Rufus Isaac, KC ** The Bishop of London ** Prince Bülow ** Lord Rosbery ** General Booth ** Lord Loreburn ** Thomas Hardy ** Henry Chaplin ** Lord Curzon ** Winston Churchill ** The Rev. R. J. Campbell ** The Speaker ** Herbert Samuel ** The Tsar ** Dr. Horton ** Philip Snowdon ** Robert Burdon Haldane ** John burns ** William Jennings Bryan ** Lewis Harcourt ** Augustine Birrel ** Rudyard Kipling ** G. K. Chesterton ILLUSTRATIONS ARE OF THE FOLLOWING : ** George Bernard Shaw (Frontispiece) ** Arthur James Balfour ** George Meredith ** Rt. Hon. H. H. Asquith ** Sir Edward Grey ** James Keir Hardie ** The Primate ** Mrs. Pankhurst ** Lord Morley ** Thomas Hardy ** Henry Chaplin ** Rudyard Kipling ** G. K. Chesterton SERIES : The Wayfarer's Library TITLE : Prophets, Priests, and Kings AUTHOR : A. G.
