The Star of Destiny and The German's Tale, by John Galt - new edition by David J. Knight (Vocamus Editions).

John Galt twice wrote the story of Herman, first as a play, The Star of Destiny, and then in prose as The German's Tale, telling the Faustian story of a scholar who sells his soul in exchange for love. Both versions are available here together for the first time, a unique opportunity to explore a story influenced by Galt's friend, Lord Byron. The edition is edited by David J. Knight, the General Editor of Vocamus Editions, with a foreword by Ian McGhee, Secretary of the John Galt Society, Introduction by David J. Knight, and with John Galt’s own preface to The German’s Tale.
