Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Letters of Lady Hesketh to the Rev. John Johnson, LL. D., Concerning Their Kinsman William Cowper the Poet
There have been many lives written of him, so that the world is familiar with such names as Lady Hesketh and Johnny of Norfolk, and needs not to be reminded how lovingly these two cousins watched over him during his later years, the one from a distance and the other near at hand. The following hitherto unpublished letters, written from 1790 - 1806, including as they do the last ten years of Cowper's life, speak for themselves.
