About this product

Product Information

Like Pepys and Evelyn, John Aubrey is not only part of the landscape of the English past, but one of the eminences from which we view it. His fame rests principally on his Brief Lives - the sketches of his contemporaries. This book attempts to show that Brief Lives was a product of its author's temperament and his relations with his friends. Few men could have had such natural generosity or such a capacity to make friends. Among his friends, to name a few, are Hobbes, Wren, Harvey, Hooke, Boyle, Inigo Jones, Newton and Evelyn. But Aubrey regarded neither the book Brief Lives or his friends as his main work but rather his surveying, first of his home in Wiltshire, then more widely in Surrey and, in the book Monumenta Britannica , of the whole of Britain.

Not as described— only six books arrived rather than the seven described, and one was from the wrong series. Unable to contact seller as every time I tried an error message appeared, saying try again later — this went on for over a week, and I am still unable to contact the seller. Does not take negative feedback immediately either. Would not recommend this seller

Wrong item. The ISBN and photo shown on the listing did not match the edition of the book I received. When contacting the seller about this issue, they claimed that Ebay automatically uploaded the photo, but did not respond when asked why the ISBN was also wrong. Really sick of these big sellers mislisting books and being rude when you receive the wrong item. If I bought a red dress and received a blue one, that would be obviously unacceptable. Don't sell books if you can't tell the difference!

The did not send the same book cover as the listed items picture, and passed all blame and said it was because eBay auto generates the sale images. I bought this book specifically for this cover and there was no mention in the description that the cover may be different like other eBay book sellers have. They did not try and rectify the situation, and just said to return it, which I will.

    A good piece of the jigsaw in my badly-chosen heroe's life.
