The article presents information on the book "The Later Letters of Lady Augusta Stanley," edited by Hector Bolitho. As a member of the aristocracy, an intimate friend of the royal family and the wife of a noted ecclesiastic, Lady Augusta had a wide circle of friends. She was a vivacious and untiring correspondent, and her letters throw interesting side-lights on many persons of prominence in the social, political, religious, and literary life of mid-Victorian England. In company with the Dean she frequently traveled on the Continent and freely recorded her impressions of foreign notables.
