Publisher's Synopsis

Writer's Recollections V1 is a memoir written by Mrs. Humphry Ward, a British novelist and social reformer. The book offers a detailed account of her life, including her childhood, education, and early career as a writer. Ward also reflects on her experiences as a wife and mother, as well as her involvement in various social and political causes. Throughout the book, Ward offers insights into the literary and cultural milieu of late 19th and early 20th century England, providing a fascinating glimpse into the world of Victorian and Edwardian literature. This volume is the first in a series of two, offering a rich and engaging portrait of a remarkable woman and writer.So much for the Master, the stimulus of whose mere presence was, according to his biographers, ""often painful."" But there were at least two other Masters in the ""Mr. Jowett"" we reverenced. And they, too, are fully shown in this biography. The Master who loved his friends and thought no pains too great to take for them, including the very rare pains of trying to mend their characters by faithfulness and plain speaking, whenever he thought they wanted it.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
