Amazon.com Book Description (ISBN 019281253X, Paperback)

Praeterita is one of the most remarkable autobiographies of the 19th century. Written by Ruskin in the 1880s between attacks of brain fever, it gives a fascinating account of his upbringing in a severely respectable Victorian household, his Continental travels, his friends and relations, and
the development and refinement of his aesthetic tastes.
