This edition prints all three parts of Mark Rutherford's autobiographical writings together. The ''Early Life', 'Autobiography' and 'Deliverance' of 'Mark Rutherford' are a fictionalized autobiography (in three parts) by the Victorian civil servant and writer W. H. White. White wrote to help people with personalities like his own - self-educated intellectuals, lonely, oversensitive, depressive, and with poor self-esteem. Fortunately, he never descends into self-pity or sermonizing. His writing has long been admired for its extraordinary precision, poignancy and economy. This makes him one of the best of the late Victorian novelists, and a writer who rewards repeated re-reading.
