Summary
Robert Pearsall Smith married Hannah Whitall in 1851 in Philadelphia. Hannah took her family to England in 1888 when her daughter Mary married an English barrister. Mary later left her first husband for Bernard Berenson. Hannah's daughter Alys married Bertrand Russell. The author, using hitherto unpublished papers, draws a vivid picture of this extraordinary family.
