Published together here for the first time are the two volumes of Robert Gitting's highly acclaimed, award-winning biography of Thomas Hardy. Cutting through speculation and half-truths, they give an outstanding and evocative account of a complex, insecure man who, after estranging himself from his rustic roots, was to roam throughout his life in search of a past happiness that he could never recreate. This superlative work is the most complete study available on one of England's greatest novelists and poets.
