Mid-Victorian Memories (1919) is a memoir written by the British author Matilda Betham-Edwards. The book provides a fascinating insight into the author's life during the mid-Victorian era, covering the period from the 1840s to the 1870s. Betham-Edwards was a prolific writer and social commentator, and her memoirs offer a detailed account of the intellectual and cultural milieu of the time.The book is divided into two parts. The first part focuses on Betham-Edwards' childhood and early years, including her upbringing in a literary and artistic family, her education, and her early literary career. The second part of the book covers her experiences as a writer and traveller, including her travels in Europe and North Africa, her encounters with famous literary figures such as George Eliot and Thomas Hardy, and her reflections on the social and political issues of the day.Throughout the book, Betham-Edwards provides vivid descriptions of the people, places, and events that shaped her life. She also offers insights into the social and cultural context of the mid-Victorian era, including the role of women in society, the rise of the middle class, and the impact of scientific and technological advances on everyday life.Overall, Mid-Victorian Memories (1919) is a rich and engaging memoir that provides a valuable window into the world of a talented and observant writer living during one of the most dynamic periods in British history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
