Excerpt from The Life of Sir Robert Moray, Soldier, Statesman and Man of Science (1608-1673)His appointment as Lecturer in History in the University of Sheffield in January, 1914, realised his long cherished ambition to secure an academic post but when, eight months later, the war broke out, the path of honour and duty was clear to him. With his usual conscientiousness, he refused a commission on the ground that he did not know one end of a riﬂe from the other, and enlisted, in September, 1914, as a private soldier in A (university) Company of the Sheffield University and City Battalion, afterwards the 12th (service) Battalion of the, York and Lancaster Regiment. He was no athlete, and to a man of his nervous and sensitive temperament, military duties were totally uncongenial. But his indomitable will power, enabled him to overcome his aversion, and he found compensation in the friendships he formed among his comrades of A company. In December, 1915, he was ordered to Egypt, Where, as the historian of the battalion notes, many of the members of A company spent their scanty hours of leisure in learning Italian and reading Dante. When the battalion proceeded to France in the following March, Robertson was detained for five weeks in hospital at Marseilles. He rejoined his unit on the eve of the Battle Of the Somme, and fell with many of his comrades in the attack on 'serre on the Ist of July, 1916.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

In this first comprehensive study of the artist, now issued in paperback, Robertson shows the full scope of Grimshaw's work - from the early landscapes of the Lake District and Yorkshire to the townscapes, dockscenes, coastal views and richly colourful portrayals of sophisticated Victorian ladies. The author discusses the techniques of Grimshaw's art, and examines the many varieties of colour and mood that are captured in his paintings. He also assesses Grimshaw's place in Victorian art and society, comparing him with such contemporaries as James Tissot and Sir Lawrence Alma-Tadema. Many of Grimshaw's paintings are in private collections and are here reproduced for the first time, ensuring the book's appeal, not only to art lovers and general readers interested in Victorian art, but also to dealers and collectors. An appendix lists all the public collections which hold examples of the artist's work.
