Croly, George

    0.15 sec.

Croly, George (1780–1860)

Irish writer, biographer, and Anglican preacher. Croly was born in Dublin and educated there at Trinity College. His literary output was based mainly on poetry and romances, including the novels Salathiel (1829), based on the legend of the ‘Wandering Jew’, and Marston (1846), set during the French Revolution.

Croly took holy orders in 1804 and went to London in 1810, becoming rector of St Stephen's, Walbrook, in 1835. From 1817 he published some 40 works; other titles include the tragedy Cataline (1822), and the satire May Fair (1827).
