Publisher description
Thomas Hay Sweet Escott (1844-1924) was an English journalist, editor and author. He received his BA from Queen's College, Oxford in 1865 and his MA in 1868, was a lecturer in logic at King's College, London from 1865-72, and deputy professor of classical literature from 1866-73. Having previously written for The Standard he took over as editor of The Fortnightly Review in 1882 but in 1886 resigned from the position having suffered a physical and emotional breakdown. During the last 35 years of his life he lived in semi-retirement in Brighton due to ill-health and appears to have published nothing between 1886-94. However, by 1895 he had partially recovered and wrote over 100 articles and a number of books before his death. His acquaintances included a wide variety of prominent figures in literature and the arts, including W S Gilbert and Tennyson, and among his close friends were Wilkie Collins and Charles Reade. This biography of 19th century novelist Anthony Trollope which offers a comprehensive guide to his works was published in 1913 and includes a bibliography of first editions of Trollope's works by Margaret Lavington
