Dora Wordsworth: Her Book is a biography written by F. V. Morley about the life of Dora Wordsworth, the daughter of the famous poet William Wordsworth. The book is based on the journals and letters that Dora wrote throughout her life, which offer a unique perspective on the literary and social world of the early 19th century. The biography covers Dora's childhood, her close relationship with her father and his literary circle, her education, her struggles with mental illness, and her untimely death at the age of 42. Morley's writing is engaging and insightful, providing a detailed portrait of a fascinating and complex woman who has often been overshadowed by her famous father. This book is a must-read for anyone interested in the life and work of the Wordsworth family, as well as for those interested in the history of mental illness and its treatment in the 19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
