Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Barry Sullivan: A Biographical Sketch
To the last hour of his waking consciousness Barry Sullivan always Spoke of Helen Faucit as his beau-ideal of an actress, and was never ashamed to confess that he had learned more from watching her in his tyro days than in musing over the methods of all the other stars, male and female, put together. November 14, 1843, marks the date of their earliest professional association - the scene, the Edinburgh Theatre Royal. It is noteworthy, furthermore, that Barry Sullivan was present in the green-room of the same house when the great tragedienne first met her future husband, Mr. (now Sir Theodore) Martin.
