A memoir by Lady Cynthia Asquith
' It may well be that like Johnson he will live rather through the influence which he exerted on those who were privileged to know him than through the written word,' D. 0. Malcolm wrote of Charles Whibley.
John Connell's biography of W. E.
Henley has aroused a fresh interest in the character of Whibley, who was Henley's close friend and correspondent, and prominent in the world of letters from 1890 till his death in 1930. Lady Cynthia Asquith gives a portrait of Whibley as she knew him from the early 1900s until his death.
