Sir Edwin Arnold (1832 - 1904), was an English journalist and poet. He
is most famous for his book "The Light of Asia". Many vintage texts such
as this, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are
increasingly hard to come by and expensive. It is with this in mind that
we are republishing this book now in an affordable, modern, high quality
edition. It comes complete with a specially commissioned new biography
of the author.
