While Volume 1 introduces Charles Kingsley’s early development and his explosive rise as a radical social reformer, Volume 2 pivots to his mature years as an established public figure. It focuses on his high-profile intellectual battles and his global travels.
The transition from Volume 1 to Volume 2 charts a shift from a young, controversial outsider to a celebrated, busy member of the Victorian elite. Volume 1 covers his early life from 1819 to 1856, while Volume 2 spans the years between 1857 and 1875. It documents his mature family life, his appointment as Royal Chaplain to Queen Victoria, his tenure as a professor of Modern History at Cambridge, and his time as Canon of Westminster. It was during these later years that his children's classic, The Water-Babies (1863), and his late historical fiction were published.
