About the book
"Sartor Resartus is Thomas Carlyle's most enduring and influential work. Sponsored by Ralph Waldo Emerson, it was first printed as a book in Boston in 1836 and immediately became the inspiration for the Transcendental movement. The first London trade edition was published in 1838." "This edition of Sartor Resartus is the first publication of the work that uses all extant versions to create an accurate authorial text."--BOOK JACKET.
