beautiful and collectable December 30, 2006

This is a real escape into Beatrix's world, written in her style of conversation and beautiful facsimile style reproductions of ephemera and letters bringing her creations to life. Best of all is the facsimile of the private first edition of Peter Rabbit at the back, a rare publication to have I think. Adults love it as well as children.

The name Beatrix Potter is as synonymous today as it was one hundred years ago but what of the Beatrix Potter the woman, what of her life in her early womanhood, it is all here in this brilliant journal of the best part of her life from 1881 to 1896, her grandmamma's vivid recollections of her childhood, her dislike of Prime Minister William Ewart Gladstone her vivid descriptions of the landscapes in Scotland and the lake District, all written in a code of which only she knew about, it is a truly wonderfully unique book, no other journal goes full-on in describing the political and social scene in this era as this one and I salute the late Leslie linder and Glen Cavaliero for making this document available to the general public, if there were an option to rate higher than five stars I would rate it 10 stars
