"…this volume continues Professor Tipper's career-long effort to recover for us a more just appreciation of Lady Jane Wilde … That love of things of the mind apparent throughout the other two volumes of letters, and perhaps Jane's most important influence on her son, remains evident here as well."
– Prof. Bruce Bashford, Stony Brook University
"… a rich source of information about the life and times of Lady Jane Wilde's family and friends. The letters rectify some of the misinformation about Lady Wilde that has been transmitted through the years."

"Dr. Tipper has added immeasurably to our understanding of the Wilde family, and in particular, of Lady Jane Wilde. Her meticulous research and painstaking translation of Lady Wilde's nearly indecipherable script has added a depth of knowledge."
