A Wilkie Collins Chronology by W Baker

This book builds on a critical and scholarly revival of interest in Collins. Baker draws upon biographical revelations and the recent publication of Collins's letters to provide a unique insight into both the man and the writer. The volume will appeal to all students of Collins and those with an interest in the life of Nineteenth-century England.

'..this Chronology is an indispensable work of reference for readers not only interested in Wilkie Collins but also in his contemporaries in the worlds of literature, theatre and art. It is systematically and comprehensively complied and is enhanced by its wide-ranging references.' Donald Hawes, Reference Reviews
