The Autobiography of Mark Rutherford(1881) has long been recognized as one of the minor classics of Victorian fiction. William Hale White, himself an apostate from Calvinism, recounts the compelling story of a young dissenting clergyman who loses his faith and is forced to rebuild his life in the sceptical atmosphere of London. This edition also includes the short story, A Mysterious Portrait, and two essays - Notes on the Book of Job and Principles.
