Inspired by 'gratitude to the actor and duty to the public, to perpetuate the character of excellence, and afford models for imitation to future artists', this two-volume 1827 biography of acclaimed tragedian Sarah Siddons (1755–1831) fed popular obsession with theatrical anecdote and criticism in an age of transformation for the English stage.
