"The Way of All Flesh (1903) is a semi-autobiographical novel by Samuel Butler which attacks Victorian-era hypocrisy. Written between 1873 and 1884, it traces four generations of the Pontifex family. It represents a relaxation from the religious outlook from a Calvinistic approach, which is presented as harsh. Butler dared not publish it during his lifetime, but when it was published it was accepted as part of the general revulsion against Victorianism.

I am very pleased with my purchase of a Classical History book from this bookseller. The conditions of the book and its dust jacket are exactly as described in the seller's listing. I consider the price, which I paid for the book, to be commensurate with the book's value. The seller shipped the book promptly and professionally, in a mailer which protected it well during the shipping process. I received the book sooner than I had anticipated. I would purchase from this seller again.

This is my second attempt. The book was on time, defensively and successfully wrapped, in better condition than described! Marvelous. I left it open, turned the pages every few days ( near an open window). The described mustiness is gone. Wonderful seller! Appreciated purchase!
