To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
a path of literature unknown to the merely popular reader, and as an author she has therefore been excluded from the sympathies of the many, to whom she has remained as much an abstraction as are the sciences on which she wrote. Another reason pro- bably is that her daughter, who gave to the world her mother's "Personal Recollections," too dutifully, it may be thought, abstained from any of that social gossip which is so dear to the reading public, and which, within certain limits, it may not u...nfairly expect. No soothsayer, however skilful, could have fore- cast the future of the life of Mary Fairfax from the conditions of her birth and her early surroundings. She was the daughter of a naval oflScer who had seen many years of active service before he became Admiral Sir William Fairfax ; the honour of a knight- banneret was conferred on him for his coolness and bravery at the battle of Camperdown. Her mother was the daughter of Mr. Samuel Charters, Solicitor of the Customs in Scotland, a man of superior mental vigour and attainments.
