description: For so engaging a tale as this, of Dorothy Wordsworth's journey though Scotland in 1803, I have wanted to advance the point of view of the author, releasing her as much as possible from the 'sister of' status she too easily assumes into the role originator. Locating the 'I' in her story, however, meant searching beneath the 'we' she so persistently employed in her writing. The effort yields a distinct and inviolate voice.Introduction, notes, and photographs by Carol Kyros Walker
