About This Item

The Miegunyah Press At Melbourne University Press, Carlton, Australia, 2000. First Edition. Hardcover. Very Good Condition/Very Good. Illustrator: Photographic and Facsimile. 650 g; XIV, 280 pages, last three pages blank, includes 12 pages of black-and-white photographs and facsimiles of letters, family trees, conversion tables, index. Photographic illustrated dustwrapper. The book has no damage. The letters Walter and Mary Richardson wrote to each other between 1854 and 1877 depict, with often surprising frankness, a loving relationship between a man and a woman was both mutual and enduring. Aspects of their relationship were used in their daughter's classic trilogy The Fortunes of Richard Mahony. Henry Handel Richardson and her later biographers, however, tended to focus more on the man and on the woman. Certainly, many more letters from Walter survive, and Mary's letters are much more difficult to read in the original. However, they reveal her to be at least Walter's equal in passion and devotion. -- front fold over blurb Size: 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. Please refer to accompanying picture (s).
