In this volume Byron corresponds with writers such as Thomas Moore, Coleridge, Leigh Hunt, and "Monk" Lewis; and with John Murray about the publication of The Corsair, Lara, and The Hebrew Melodies. The crucial events of his private life at this time are his engagement to Anabella Milbanke and their marriage early in 1815.
In 1992, the bicentenary of the birth of Annabella Noel Byron, this book makes a sympathetic reassessment of this misunderstood and much-maligned woman, refuting the unfavourable contemporary judgements made about her and revealing instead the many benevolent causes she supported.
Biography of Annabella Milbanke, who married Lord Byron in 1815, separated from him within a year, and went to court to arrange a legal separation and custody of their daughter. Lord Byron agreed to the legal separation and moved to Europe permanently. Includes some family history and pedigree charts.
