Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Richard Mansfield the Man and the Actor
This work was undertaken with the intention of making a permanent record of the events and achieve ments of Richard Mansfield's life and of presenting through them the personal side of his large and complex character as he revealed it to his intimates. The only real acquaintance the public had with him was through the personality of the characters which he acted. No attempt has been made to give a searching analysis of these characterisations, for this is a record of facts rather than of opinions. Wherever this purpose ap pears to have been departed from, it has been only with the idea of oeering side-lights which would illuminate the facts.
