The Collected Letters of Ellen Terry, Volume 3 cover

Ellen Terry's correspondence was both exuberant and extensive. Her remaining letters provide a fascinating insight into the dynamics of the Victorian theatre, and the difficulties of life for a woman maintaining a successful public persona whilst raising two illegitimate children.

'the value of this collection lies primarily in its potential as a source for research ... a worthwhile investment for major libraries.' Women's History Review 'the volume, with its discerning and informative introduction and transcripts of more than four hundred letters, testifies to the knowledge and skills of its editor, and gives a fresh, vivid and engaging picture of a brilliant and great-hearted artist.'
