A New Memoir of Hannah More or Life in Hall and Cottage is a biographical book written by Helen Cross Knight. The book is a detailed account of the life of Hannah More, an English writer, philanthropist, and social reformer who lived in the 18th and 19th centuries. The book covers More’s life from her childhood to her death, focusing on her experiences in both the upper-class halls and the lower-class cottages of England. The book explores More’s early life as a schoolteacher and writer of plays, as well as her involvement in the abolitionist movement and her work to improve the education and living conditions of the poor. It also delves into her relationships with other prominent figures of the time, including William Wilberforce and Samuel Johnson. Through extensive research and analysis of primary sources, Knight provides a comprehensive and engaging portrait of More’s life, highlighting her achievements and struggles as a woman in a male-dominated society. The book is written in a clear and accessible style, making it suitable for both academic and general readers interested in the history of England, women’s rights, and social reform. Overall, A New Memoir of Hannah More or Life in Hall and Cottage is a valuable contribution to the field of biography and a compelling read for anyone interested in the life and work of this remarkable woman.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
