by PeterQuennell (Author)
Peter Quennell has been fascinated by the subject of happiness since early childhood, when he first sought to understand its meaning, and to establish whether or not anyone ever actually attained it. Studying the lives and works of creative artists from the Old Stone Age to the present day, this book analyzes how individual men and women have been inspired by this universally shared human pursuit. The author's previous books include biographies of Byron and Alexander Pope and Four Portraits . In addition he was a founder and co-editor of History Today .
