FROM WIKIPEDIA: Thomas Roscoe (Liverpool 23 June 1791 – 24 September 1871 London) was an English author and translator. The fifth son of William Roscoe, he was born at Toxteth Park, Liverpool in 1791, and educated by Dr. W. Shepherd and by Mr. Lloyd, a private tutor. Soon after his father's financial troubles in 1816, which led to bankruptcy, Roscoe began to write in local magazines and journals, and he continued to follow literature as a profession. He died at age 80, on 24 September 1871, at Acacia Road, St. John's Wood, London. OUR MISSION STATEMENT: Our goal is to provide the best books for the lowest prices.
