This collection of letters chronicles the sixteen-year friendship between Lois Wiegardt Whitaker and Veronica Boulter Toynbee, the wife (and later widow) of renowned historian Arnold Toynbee. Through their deeply personal and intellectual exchanges, the letters offer insight into Toynbee’s later years, the evolving lives of both women, and the growth of Whitaker’s own family, including her son Daniel S. Whitaker, who would become a noted Spanish-language scholar. A rich and intimate correspondence, The Gentle Giant’s Lady and Her Friend provides a unique perspective on friendship, family, and the intellectual world of the 20th century.
