This biography of Augusta Gregory, the founder of the Abbey Theatre in Dublin and close friend of W.B. Yeats, is based on the author's research of her papers (housed in the NY Public Library). Frequent excerpts from Lady Gregory's correspondence supplement her story which is associated with a vexed relationship with the Irish during the Potato Famine and the discussion of the plays and writings produced by Yeats and others.
