A comment on the life and writing of the American lady who wrote as John Oliver Hobbes: by MARGARET MAISON
Dr. Maison outlines the career of one of the most brilliant stars of the 19th-century literary world, Mrs. Pearl Craigie , who was the friend of Lord Curzon and one of the most beautiful women of her time. Her books-both the early society novels and the later Roman Catholic ones-have, Dr. Maison believes, continuing claims on our attention.
