Excerpt from Little Masterpiece: Essay on Biography; Selected Biographical and Historical Sketches and Other Writings The volume of selections from Macaulay in this series of Little Masterpieces begins with a passage from his essay on History, and includes a portion of the essay on Boswell's "Life of Johnson." Within a few months after the publication of the latter essay, Thomas Carlyle, like Macaulay, wrote a brilliant review of Croker's edition of Boswell. It appeared in "Frazer's," and was prefaced, in the previous number of the magazine (April, 1832), by an essay on Biography, in which Carlyle tells us not only how History gets made but how it ought to be written. He holds that History is the essence of innumerable Biographies, that the record of the world is the record of the men - particularly the great men - who have lived here. If you write the lives of these men, you have written History. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
