Book Description:
Love Letters - an Anthology of Passion was conceived while researching in the Manuscript Room of the British Library, where the pleasure of handling fragile and beautiful eighteenth century love letters gave her the idea that it should be possible to reproduce that very touching and personal experience for a wider audience. To create this book, the originals of other significant love letter were tracked down and photographed in museums and libraries all over the world. Seals were researched and painstakingly reproduced and letters of hundreds of lovers combed for quotations to express the history of love from the tentative warmth of admiration to the full fire of unconditional passion. The result is a book which is both historically authentic and irresistibly romantic.

A glossy coffee table book.

"Facsmiles of real love-letters from famous writers like Isadora Duncan, Dylan Thomas, Nathaniel Hawthorne, John Keats and Robert Browning in the same penmanship and ink in which they were first written, inside reproductions of their original envelopes and packets, and exact copies of their original wax seals. (PR sheet inside front cover)

Beautiful detail, and very nice concept book.
