Publisher's Synopsis

Highly modulated rhythms encompassing an unusual and distinctive tonal range distinguish Sir Thomas Browne's prose, a man whose work benefitted from an eclectic range of interests. Five examples of his art are available here in full: "Religio Medici", "Hydriotaphia", "The Gardens of Cyrus", "A Letter to a Friend" and "Christian Morals".

About the Publisher

Penguin Books Ltd

The first ten paperback Penguin books appeared in 1935 costing 6d each (the price of a packet of cigarettes). Since then the Penguin list has developed enormously, but still aims to bring the best writing to the widest possible audience. Penguin Paperbacks now range from Booker Prize-winning contemporary authors, to mass market bestsellers, with successful history, biography and general non-fiction as well.
