Synopsis

This book is a collection of diary entries penned by the author from 1892 to 1901. Spanning nine eventful years, they offer an intimate glimpse into the Victorian upper echelons and their political, social, and literary worlds. The author was a Liberal politician, whose circle included Gladstone, Matthew Arnold, and Alfred Tennyson, and his observations provide a unique insider's perspective on late 19th-century British history. From the tumult of the Irish Home Rule crisis to the growing influence of socialism, from the career of Cardinal Manning to the ascent of Theodore Roosevelt, this book paints a vivid portrait of an era poised between tradition and change.
