Bought by the Beatrix Potter Society at Sotheby's in 1994, the diary was written by Beatrix Potter in 1905 while on holiday with her family in Wales, and it spans the last two weeks of the life of her fiancé and editor Norman Warne. An introduction sets the scene, and there is a short history of the Warne Family by Judy Taylor based on unpublished diaries and letters. Illustrated with photographs and sketches, and with seven of Beatrix Potter's water-colours reproduced in colour. by Beatrix Potter
