Edwardian Lady: Life of Edith Holden by Ina Taylor

3.0

The presentation of this book is very much in keeping with the Country Diary’s brand of Edwardian nostalgia and is beautifully illustrated but as a biography it is very thin. The main problem is that, aside from being an artist, Edith Holden lived a relatively unremarkable life and I am left with the impression that even if more documentation had been available to the author, there would still be little to write about beyond basic information. I’m a fan of Edith’s artwork and I have a number of items from the franchise but this was a little disappointing.
