Book Overview
The History and Adventures of an Atom is a novel written by Tobias Smollett and published in 1769. The book follows the journey of an atom, who is personified as a character, as it travels through different periods of history and encounters various historical figures. The atom witnesses events such as the reign of Julius Caesar, the Crusades, and the reign of Louis XIV. Along the way, the atom also experiences various adventures and meets other atoms, who have their own stories to tell. The novel is a satirical take on history and politics, with Smollett using the atom as a vehicle to critique contemporary society. The book was well-received upon its publication and is considered to be one of Smollett's most imaginative works.In Two Volumes.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
