John Rae (1845-1915) wrote what is considered to be one of the finest biographies of Adam Smith, originally published in 1895. Reviewers, both contemporary and decades in the future, lavished praise on Rae's Life of Adam Smith, noting Rae's extensive use of archival material that had not been unearthed previously, as well as Rae's way of letting the information he presents speak for itself. The present volume is a high-quality facsimile reproduction of Rae's work.
