Mark Twain once famously said "there was but one solitary thing about the past worth remembering, and that was the fact that it is past and can't be restored." Well, over recent years, The British Library, working with Microsoft has embarked on an ambitious programme to digitise its collection of 19th century books. There are now 65,000 titles available (that's an incredible 25 million pages) of material ranging from works by famous names such as Dickens, Trollope and Hardy as well as many forgotten literary gems , all of which can now be printed on demand and purchased right here on Amazon. Further information on The British Library and its digitisation programme can be found on The British Library website.

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.

Richardson was educated at the Grey Coat School in New York
Her life was shaped in part by the publication The Ladies" Diary. Charlotte"s father was Robert Richardson, a regular writer for the magazine The Ladies" Diary. Richardson had been so intrigued by "Betty Smales" that he wrote letters of admiration, and from these and a short correspondence, they were later married.
This kind of exchange seems to have been encouraged by the character of the magazine that combined poetry with mathematics against the structure of an almanac.
Prizes were offered to the answers to charades, verse enigmas and mathematical puzzles. Charlotte Richardson was born in Lambeth on 15 May 1796 to Elizabeth and Robert Richardson.
She was the youngest of three daughters. After her father"s death in 1804, her mother decided to open a boarding school in Vauxhall for the dual purpose of earning an income as well as ensuring her two oldest children could be educated.
She decided to temporarily send her youngest, Charlotte, to live with an aunt who, for unknown reasons, failed to return her for a decade.
lieutenant was neither Charlotte or her mother"s idea that she should spend her childhood in Hinderwell, Yorkshire. In an attempt to reconnect with her family, Richardson wrote a poem in The Ladies" Diary in 1815, explicitly referring to her mother. Her mother replied in verse a year later, and Richardson reunited with her immediate family in London.
All of Richardson"s family (her mother and her two older sisters) regularly wrote contributions for the Ladies" Diary.
Her first publications were Waterloo, a Poem on the Late Victory and Isaac and Rebecca, published in 1817. The following year Richardson published Harvest, a Poem, in Two Parts: with other Poetical Pieces, which she dedicated to the editor of The Ladies" Diary, the mathematician Charles Hutton.
In 1823 she published a Gothic novel, The Soldier"s Child, or, Virtue Triumphant, and Ludolph, or, The Light of Nature, a Poem. Charlotte Richardson died in Vauxhall on 29 March 1854.
The Dictionary of National Biography noted in its 48th volume in 1896 that this person had frequently been confused with other women with similar names, including Mistress
Caroline Richardson (1777–1853), who was also a poet. The more modern version of this biography (Oxford Dictionary of National Biography) and this article differ substantially from the Diplomate of National Board version. The ODNB notes however that confusion is still possible.
