VANSITTART (Jane, Mrs Moorham, Novelist and Biographer)

Autograph Letter Signed to Eileen Cond, saying "I have signed your pretty bookplate ... It took me over 2 years to write", often turning "the letters, journal & diaries ... into conversation ... really a biography, written as a novel ... I wish you could see Stones' Bookshop window in Rolle St: here. It has pictures of Henry, Honoria, John, & a letter from Henry written to my grandfather", she edited 'Katharine Fry's Book' from "her (Elizabeth Fry's daughter) wonderfully illustrated journal ... She went to George IV's coronation - very little different from present day standards ... I am so glad you like the cover of 'The So Beloved' ... almost allegorical", 2 sides 8vo., Doneraile, Salterton Road, Exmouth, Devon, 23rd February
