Don Juan (Deseret Alphabet Edition) available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. George Gordon Byron, 6th Baron Byron (1788-1824) was an English peer. He's best known today for his poetry but also dabbled in politics and died supporting the Greek War of Independence. In his day, he had a scandalous reputation because of his irregular home life and radical politics. "Byronic" heroes-dark, brooding, and dangerous-were a staple of Romantic literature and named for him. Byron is also notable for fathering the English mathematician Ada Lovelace (1815-1852), his only (legitimate) offspring. "Don Juan" is considered Byron's magnum opus: a long, satirical poem about life, social mores, literary and political in-fighting-and occasionally Don Juan. Byron borrows the name only (not even the name's pronunciation!) from Spanish folklore. His Don Juan is not a heartless seducer, but a beautiful young man who cannot help having women fall in love with him as he travels the Europe of his day. This book is in the Deseret Alphabet, a phonetic alphabet for writing English developed in the mid-19th century at the University of Deseret (now the University of Utah).
