Life of Octavia Hill by Octavia Hill PDF Summary

Book Description: Excerpt from Life of Octavia Hill: As Told in Her Letters On realising this fact, she expressed a strong wish that the family should keep the details of such a memoir in their own hands; and she afterwards made a special request that the final decision as to what should be published, and what suppressed, should rest with me. It will, therefore, be understood that I am rather the editor than the author of this book. The most import ant part of this Memoir will be found in the letters and it is by my express wish that they are printed in larger type than the explanations which link them together. But even those explanations are only in a limited sense my own work. All I have done is to weave together statements made by my wife and her sisters, a paper left by their Mother, and, in the very early part, the recollections of Octavia's early playmate, Miss Margaret Howitt.
