Sartor Resartus, and On Heroes, Hero-Worship, and the Heroic in History, by Thomas Carlyle. Published 1908.
This compendium edition of some of Carlyle’s works includes an introduction by W. H. Hudson.
I volunteered to post-process this book because I have seen many references to Sartor Resartus in mid-19th century periodicals. I think that it was sensational because of the question of Teufelsdröckh’s existence.
