This tale of Georgian England from real diaries and letters shows how money, colour and social background created discord for two young women. The county of Yorkshire, made famous by Charlotte, Emily and Anne Brontë who lived nearby, was where Anne and Eliza met. Both girls were born in 1791. Anne came from the poorest branch of a set of Halifax landed gentry. She wrote journals from 1806 when she was 15 until her death in 1840, and filed all her letters in date order, including Eliza's. All her papers were hidden away in her house until 1925, when the last Lister gave them to Halifax library. They form the text of this book.

Selections from William Butler Yeats' poetry revealing an autobiographical account of his sudden heart problem and severe depression.Both my father and I loved poetry; we quoted it to each other all the time.He had racks of it on his bookshelves and delighted in showing me the beauty and honesty of the mere arrangement of words.When I began to systematically read the later poetry of William Butler Yeats I was looking for the story of his extra-marital lover, a young Catholic woman who gave birth to his first beloved son. But she was murdered and he had to abandon his son. I found everything I was looking for right here in the poetry.

William Butler Yeats had an extra-marital lover, Lily O'Neill or Honor Bright, from 1918 to 1925. Garda Superintendent Leopold Dillon murdered her on orders from Kevin O'Higgins, Minister of Justice of the Irish Free State. George, Senator Yeats's wife, reported falsely that Lily was a Republican spy. O'Higgins wanted to restore credence in the Free State, which would otherwise have been reclaimed by the British due to maladministration. Afterwards a bogus trial was concocted outside the court circuit by Chief Superintendent David Neligan, at which Lily was reinvented as a prostitute to conceal Yeats's affair and son, and hide the involvement of Free State officials. On the strength of false evidence the jury unanimously acquitted the assassin after three minutes deliberation.
