←Menu of Letters 1889

Aet. 37, to the editor of the Pall Mall Gazette. The book George Moore received from Stead was The Truth About Russia (September 1888). The new chapter 14 of Confessions of a Young Man (second edition, April 1889) discussed the purported population crisis. Though not mentioned in this letter, Stead was behind the prosecution of George’s publisher Henry Vizetelly in October 1888 and May 1889.
