Elizabeth’s Reviews > Reluctant Pioneer: A Life of Elizabeth Wordsworth > Status Update

“Elizabeth was in fact a Yonge heroine come to life…” (41).

Elizabeth and Yonge met in Oxford in June 1870!

The first connection! Elizabeth became friends with Edward Benson, father of both R.H. Benson and E.F. Benson!

Reading as I have time. Thank you inter-library loan! The first sentence amuses me: “Elizabeth Wordsworth is one of the great figures in the women’s movement, a cause in which she took not the faintest interest” (1).
