Florence Arnold-Forster's Irish Journal

Florence Arnold-Forster was the adopted daughter of William Edward Fortser, one of the foremost British liberals of the late 19th century with a distinguished record of social concern and political reform. An exceptional person, she accompanied Forster when he took on responsibility for the government of Ireland from 1880 to 1882. Her journal from these years, here published for the first time, illuminates the politics, family life, and society of Victorian Britain and Ireland and offers a rare account of the day-to-day experience of Irish administration at a critical period.Moody, T. W. is the author of 'Florence Arnold-Forster's Irish Journal', published 1988 under ISBN 9780198224051 and ISBN 0198224052.
