Review:
'Mary Lamb lived with demons and nightmares all her life. Yet the stories she left behind have filled children's imaginations. Now it is time for Mary's own dark story to be told. Fortunately, in Kathy Watson she has a master biographer...a wonderful, moving and vivid book.' Amanda Foreman Praise for The Crossing: 'A haunting biography.' Mail on Sunday 'An affectionate,acutely observed life of Webb.' Sunday Times
