My Dearest Annie

Annie Moore (1854 - 1915) was Grandmother to the Author and lived through an exciting period of Irish history. Her own life also had a share of romance, tragedy and enduring friendships. A collection of her correspondence, with over 300 letters and documents, reveals the hidden world of a woman in the years from 1867 - 1915. This is a gentle, humorous book, laced with laughs and sadness, potent with the power of letter writing and a monument to the constancy and eventual triumph of an understanding mother.
