Elizabeth Longford, celebrated for her authoritative and richly detailed biographical work, presents Blunt as a man of magnificent contradictions — a British aristocrat who fiercely championed the causes of Egypt, India, and Ireland against the very empire his class helped sustain. A Pilgrimage of Passion uncovers the full arc of Blunt's turbulent personal life, including his celebrated love affairs, his friendships with the great minds of his age, and his unyielding defiance of political orthodoxy. Written with Longford's characteristic elegance and narrative warmth, the portrait that emerges is of a man who lived with the intensity of a romantic hero, making this an essential read for anyone drawn to the collision of art, politics, and personality in the Victorian era.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48763139850459,"sku":"2026200004769-SECONDHAND","price":30.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/ea4ca05c-05d3-49a4-bfdc-17df6c84efff.png?v=1778499244","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026200004769-secondhand-a-pilgrimage-of-passion-the-life-of-wilfrid-scawen-blunt","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
