Description: Peopled with such literary figures as Tennyson, Trollope, Browning, George Eliot, Henry James, and Virginia Woolf, this book provides Anne Thackeray Ritchie's complete journals written in 1864-65 and 1878, an ample selection of her most interesting letters, and a number of significant letters written to her.

Because only small portions of each journal have been previously published, this important collection presents an essential document of Ritchie's inner life, especially the account of her response to her father's death.
