A political biography of Daniel Defoe
by Philip Nicholas Furbank, W. R. Owens · 2006
Popularity 1
Furbank and Owens attempt to disentangle the story of Daniel Defoe's political career, as journalist, polemicist, political theorist and secret agent. They argue that this remarkable career calls for a good deal of rethinking, not least because biography and bibliography are here inextricably intertwined.
