Wear and tear to edges of D/J. Small piece of D/J missing from top edge of spine. Price clipped. The author is the granddaughter of Bulwer Lytton and widow of Edwin Lutyens. When she was thirteen and living in Paris, where her father, lately Viceroy of India, was then Ambassador, she began a regular correspondence with an old family friend, the Rev. Whitwell Elwin.He was fifty-eight years her senior and had formerly been editor of the Quarterly Review. To 'His Rev' she poured out all the bewildered questions of youth, and he comforted his 'blessed girl' with wisdom drawn from a long familiarity with the great worlds of religion, letters and politics. Her letters give a vivid and immediate picture of what it was like to be a girl growing up in late Victorian high society. They go on to tell of her storymy, emotional relationship with the brilliant, romantic poet Wilfred Blunt, the protrated agony of her attempts to break with him, and finally of her meeting with the promising young architect, Ned Lutyens, and how her family's objections to the marraige were eventually overcome. The book ends with Elwin's death soon after the baptisim of Lady Emily's first child. Illustrated. 340 pp. (We carry a wide selection of titles in The Arts, Theology, History, Politics, Social and Physical Sciences. academic and scholarly books and Modern First Editions etc.).
