In 'Thirteen Years of a Busy Woman's Life' by Mrs. Alec-Tweedie, the reader is taken on a captivating journey through the daily life and experiences of a woman in the late 19th century. The book is written in a detailed and descriptive style, providing insight into the challenges and triumphs of a woman navigating societal expectations and personal ambitions. Through anecdotes and observations, the author offers a unique perspective on the role of women during this period, shedding light on both the limitations and opportunities they faced. The book's literary context is rooted in the tradition of memoirs and autobiographies, offering a firsthand account of a lesser-known aspect of history. Mrs. Alec-Tweedie, a prolific writer and traveler, drew inspiration from her own experiences to pen 'Thirteen Years of a Busy Woman's Life'. Her keen observations and eloquent prose reflect her deep understanding of the intricacies of women's lives in the 19th century. This book serves as a valuable contribution to the literature on women's history and provides a rare glimpse into the daily struggles and joys of a busy woman. I highly recommend 'Thirteen Years of a Busy Woman's Life' to readers interested in women's history, memoirs, and 19th-century literature. Mrs. Alec-Tweedie's thoughtful reflections and engaging storytelling make this book a compelling and informative read for anyone looking to gain a deeper understanding of the experiences of women in the past.

The late 1890s saw Arthur Conan Doyle return to England after several years abroad. His new house, named Undershaw, represented a fresh start but it was also the beginning of a dramatic decade that saw him fall in love, stand for parliament, fight injustice and be awarded a knighthood. However, for his many admirers, the most important event of that decade was the resurrection of Sherlock Holmes - the character that he felt had cast a shadow over his life.
