A keen observer of people and current affairs, Henry provided his friend with witty, colourful accounts of events in and around Richmond, including election hijinks, horseracing, ballooning and visits by travelling theatrical companies, lecturers and conjurors. He also discussed literature, art and botany, mused on love and courtship, and described the latest doings and saying of various Richmond 'characters'. Written between 1825 and 1832, the sixty-six surviving letters bring late Georgian Richmond to life and make delightful reading for those interested in local, social and family history. The letters are accompanied by biographical information about Henry Wood and his friends, and a detailed index.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Leslie Anne Hendra\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1466453125\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781466453128\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Createspace Independent Publishing Platform\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/21\/2012\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 170\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.57lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.39d","brand":"Leslie Anne Hendra","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48439269982463,"sku":"9781466453128","price":18.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_cc349fa0-158c-4c38-aa5d-b84697506c89.jpg?v=1777176552","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/a-voice-from-richmond-yorkshire-leslie-anne-hendra-9781466453128","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
