The Secret Diaries of Miss Anne Lister by Anne Lister

2.0

I can't imagine the amount of work it must have taken to go through these long and cryptic diaries and make sense of them. Unfortunately it sounds like life in the 1820s in England was terribly boring, and I'm not all that interested in reading how much things costed or how long it took to walk down to Halifax. Anne Lister's interesting years were in the 1830s so I'm surprised these diaries go from 1817 to 1824 only. Reading the editor's comments was enough to have a rough idea of her life throughout these years.
