This Memoir is an intimate and sensitive account of the childhood, courtship, marriage, and adult life of a fascinating, erudite late-Victorian woman. Written for her children after the death of her husband, Louise Creighton's reflections offer a rare glimpse into the domestic, intellectual, and social world of late-Victorian England.
Louise Hume Creighton (née von Glehn) was a British author of books on historical and sociopolitical topics, and an activist for a greater representation of women in society, including women's suffrage, and in the Church of England.
