<p>The official biography of Charles Dickens (1812-70) was published in 1872-4 by his close friend and literary executor John Forster, and has been reissued in this series. Of the many other memoirs and reminiscences of the great novelist, this book by his favourite daughter Mary (1838-96), known as Mamie, is perhaps the least familiar. Published in 1896, shortly after her death, it gives a loving picture, based on her own memories, of the person whom she held 'in my heart of hearts as a man apart from all other men, as one apart from all other beings'. Mamie, who had taken Dickens's side during the separation from his wife, and acted effectively as his housekeeper at Gad's Hill, had compiled an edition of her father's letters with her aunt Georgina Hogarth, and this second act of piety gives an idyllic - perhaps too idyllic - account of daily life with Dickens.</p>

My Father As I Recall Him

Barman Pr

Mary 'Mamie' Angela Dickens (1838-1896) was the oldest daughter of English novelist Charles Dickens and his wife Catherine. She wrote a book of reminiscences about her father, My Father as I Recall Him (1886), and, with her aunt Georgina Hogarth, edited the first collection of his letters. Charles John Huffam Dickens (1812-1870), also known as "Boz", was the foremost English novelist of the Victorian era, as well as a vigorous social campaigner. Considered one of the English language's greatest writers, he was acclaimed for his rich storytelling and memorable characters, and achieved massive worldwide popularity in his lifetime. The popularity of his novels and short stories has meant that not one has ever gone out of print. Dickens wrote serialised novels, the usual format for fiction at the time, and each new part of his stories was eagerly anticipated by the reading public. Among his best-known works are Sketches by Boz (1836), The Pickwick Papers (1837), Oliver Twist (1838), Nicholas Nickleby (1839), Barnaby Rudge (1841), A Christmas Carol (1843), Martin Chuzzlewit (1844), David Copperfield (1850), Bleak House (1853), Little Dorrit (1857), A Tale of Two Cities (1859), Great Expectations (1861) and Our Mutual Friend (1865).

<p>Mary ("Mamie") Dickens (1838-1896) was Dickens' eldest daughter. She remained with her father until his death in 1870, taking second place to her aunt, Georgina Hogarth, as housekeeper and companion, and living with Georgina afterwards. She collaborated with Georgina in the editing and publication of the three volumes of Dickens' "Letters"published in 1880. Mamie provides a first hand account of life with the "inimitable Boz" and his influences on family and friends, and designed this book to appeal to the young. This title is cited and recommended by Cambridge Bibliography of English Literature.</p>
