About this ebook
The Spirit of the People - An Analysis of the English Mind by Ford Madox Ford the English novelist, poet, critic and editor whose journals were instrumental in the development of early 20th-century English literature.
Ford writes from the affectionately critical standpoint of an observer who feels his Englishness all the more intensely for being aware that he is half a foreigner.
This work serves as a great introduction to anyone who wants to understand something of the pleasures, the beauties and the harsh realities of Edwardian England.
This title was originally published in 1907, here we are republished with an introductory biography of the author.
