The sweet-natured, gossipy diaries of a Victorian country clergyman with a full introduction and archive material detailing the history of the diary. This is the only proper edition of Kilvert's Diary.
Francis Kilvert was a country clergyman who lived from 1840 to 1879, and these are his diaries: sweet-natured, generous, curious, and full of an abiding wonder and delight in the natural world and the beauties of the changing seasons. Selected from the three volumes which are all that remain of his writings after mishaps including censorship by his widow and the destruction of a number of inherited volumes. A worthy heir to Pepys and Dorothy Wordsworth, Kilvert is an irresistible companion.
The original selection by William Plomer. This edition contains a fascinating new introduction by Mark Bostridge, as well as never before published images of Kilvert's world, to commemorate 150 years since Kilvert began his original diary.
