The Edwardian Lady: The Story of Edith Holden by Ina Taylor

4.0

Short, sweet, and populated with some beautiful examples of Holden's work, as well as many photographs from her life. This woman had talent akin to Beatrix Potter's, but without quite as much need to self-market and a desire to teach as much as produce, she wasn't destined to become a household name to anyone except fans of her Nature Notes, which was published decades after she died. The family history is an interesting one, especially for those curious about the post Downton Abbey era. A lovely snapshot of a life too short.
