Sir Francis Bacon's Own Story is a historical biography written by John Elisha Roe and first published in 1918. The book presents the life story of Sir Francis Bacon, a prominent English philosopher, statesman, and essayist who lived in the late 16th and early 17th centuries. The book provides a detailed account of Bacon's life, from his birth in 1561 to his death in 1626. It covers his childhood, education, and early career as a lawyer, as well as his rise to prominence in the court of Queen Elizabeth I and later as Lord Chancellor under King James I. The book also delves into Bacon's philosophical and scientific contributions, including his development of the scientific method and his influential works on natural philosophy. It explores his views on religion, politics, and ethics, as well as his personal relationships and controversies, such as his impeachment for corruption. Overall, Sir Francis Bacon's Own Story provides readers with a comprehensive and engaging portrait of one of the most important figures of the English Renaissance.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
