Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Women of Letters, Vol. 2 of 2
The bright anecdotes and sketches of famous contemporaries that must have flowed from the pen of the author of The Simple Story, when relating her own chequered career, are lost beyond recall. But it is still possible to disentangle the facts of her life from the wearisome platitudes and yet more intolerable puns of her historian.
