This is perhaps one of the best-loved journals in English literature. Dorothy Wordsworth began it in 1800 to give her poet-brother pleasure, and for three years she noted walks and weather, friends, and neighbors on the roads of Grasmere. The journals tell of Wordsworth's marriage, the Wordworths' concern for Coleridge, and of the composition of poetry. For this edition, the original manuscripts have been freshly edited, yielding new readings of previously misread or undeciphered words, and restoring Dorothy Wordsworth's hasty punctuation. Woof supplies a rich commentary, illuminating every aspect of this marvellous personal record.Wordsworth, Dorothy is the author of 'Grasmere Journals' with ISBN 9780198170013 and ISBN 0198170017.
