By: Richard Holmes  
Richard Holmes knew he had become a true biographer the day his bank bounced a check that he had inadvertently dated 1772. Because for the acclaimed chronicler of Shelley and Coleridge, biography is a physical pursuit, an ardent and arduous retracing of footsteps that may have vanished centuries before.
 
In this gripping book, Holmes takes us from France’s Massif Central, where he followed the route taken by Robert Louis Stevenson and a sweet-natured donkey, to Mary Wollstonecraft’s Revolutionary Paris, to the Italian villages where Percy Shelley tried to cast off the strictures of English morality and marriage. Footsteps is a wonderful exploration of the ties between biographers and their subjects, filled with passion and revelations.
 
“Deeply impressive . . . Footsteps is a singular event in the modern history of biography, and in itself a delightful reading experience.”—Alfred Kazin
 
“This exhilarating book, part biography, part autobiography, shows the biographer as sleuth and huntsman, tracking his subjects through space and time.”—The Observer
 
“A modern masterpiece . . . [Holmes is] the most romantic of contemporary biographers and probably the most revolutionary in spirit and form.”—Michael Holroyd, author of Bernard Shaw

Great timepieces
Color: 2858-All Black-Black Gold, Color: 2858-All Black-Black Gold
I gave particular this watch to our grandson for his 18th birthday and he was thrilled with it. I have purchased 4 other watches from this company and I will continue to do so. The product looks like a much more expensive watch and we get compliments all the time. I gave a different one to my husband and 2 others as Christmas gifts and my friends were blown away. The watches arrives in a great box, with a tool for sizing and in a very timely manner. The rose-colored watch I bought for myself comes with a beautiful bracelet that reads " She believed she could so she did", my mantra. Love this company.

Worst watch I have ever purchased!
Color: 2858-Silver Gold-Black Face
The rods in between in each link aren’t solid rods at all! They’re made up of almost long, thin staples that bend and break EXTREMELY easily. Taking them off is incredibly difficult to begin with! I’ve removed links on hundreds of watches, it’s not my first rodeo, it has never been this ridiculously difficult due to extremely cheap materials. I wish I could give this a negative 100, never seen a cheaper watch. It’s extremely light and looks nothing like the picture either. Seriously, don’t waste your time. It’s the worst, cheapest watch you can buy. I shouldn’t expect better from Amazon.

Nice looking but horrible clasp design
Color: 2858-All Black-Black Gold
Nice watch. The only bad thing is the clasps on the wrist band is horrible. One little bump and it opens up and then you have to try to catch the watch in case it completely falls off. I'd recommend only buying this if you are willing to change the wristband out otherwise half the time you will be fighting it from opening up and slipping off.
