Thomas Carlyle
G. K. Chesterton
Read by David Wales
A short biography (1902) of a famous writer (Carlyle) by another famous writer (Chesterton). The first half exhibits Chesterton’s sly wit as he ruminates upon Carlyle’s work; the second half is straightforward biography. There are a great many pictures and portraits in the physical text. - Summary by David Wales (0 hr 49 min)
Reviews

Horatio Drake
A little gem, which makes me eager to read or listen to Carlyle's book "On Heroes" and other books. David Wales' voice suits this book perfectly, and he is such a prolific reader that I will definitely listen to his other narrations. Highly recommended for intellectual curiosity.
