AEG (all edges gilt). "Jean Ingelow (17 March 1820 20 July 1897) was an English poet and novelist. She also wrote several stories for children. Born at Boston, Lincolnshire, she was the daughter of William Ingelow, a banker. As a girl she contributed verses and tales to magazines under the pseudonym of Orris, but her first (anonymous) volume, A Rhyming Chronicle of Incidents and Feelings, which came from an established London publisher, did not appear until her thirtieth year. This was called charming by Tennyson, who declared he should like to know the author; they later became friends." (from Wikipedia). N° de réf. du vendeur A45074
