The Life & Letters of Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley, Vol. 1 of 2 (Classic Reprint)

Sir Percy and Lady Shelley, and has been compiled from the MS. journals and letters in their possession, which were entrusted to me, without reserve, for this purpose. The earlier portions of the journal having been placed also at Professor Dowden sdisposal for his Life of Shelley, it will be found that in my first volume many passages indispensable to a life of Mary Shelley have already appeared, in one form or another, in Professor Dowden spages. This fact I have had to ignore, having indeed settled on the quotations necessary to my narrative before the Life of Stelley appeared. They are given without comment or dilution, just as they occur; where omissions are made it is in order to avoid repetition, or because the everyday entries refer to trivial circumstances uninteresting to the general reader.
