Book Description
Excerpt from Henry Irving: A Biographical Sketch United States was first made public, it occurred to me that the playgoers of America might possibly like to be possessed of some more information concerning the career of our representative actor than had hitherto been published. The idea led to the compilation of a short biography of Mr. Irving. Then came suggestions that an authentic memoir of the actor would be welcome in England. For such a purpose more information was required, and that was eventually obtained from various sources, with the result that the first chapters of the work contain some particulars relating to the early life of the actor which will probably be new to most of my readers.

Book Description
Sir Henry Irving was the greatest actor of the Victorian age. He transformed the theater in Britain and America from a disreputable and marginal entertainment into a respected art form. His admirers ranged from Queen Victoria to working men and housewives. He was thought of by Gladstone as his greatest contemporary and in 1895 became the first actor to receive a knighthood. Published to mark the centenary of Irving’s death, this book gives an account not only of Irving himself and of his career, but also of his whole impact on the Victorian Theatre and on Victorian culture.
