Harriet Martineau is one of the most prolific and well-connected Victorian writers to have fallen off the literary map in the century following her death. This eclectic collection of letters
ranges from the 1820s through 1870s and includes private and professional correspondence, from brief notes to long discourses, addressing topics from domestic minutiae and personal health to
national and international affairs with people like Maria Weston Chapman, Jane Welsh Carlyle, James Martineau, Elizabeth Jesser Reid, and Henry Atkinson.
