Moorman, Mary. William Wordsworth: The Later Years 1803–1850. Oxford: Clarendon Press; New York: Oxford University Press, 1965.
“This book is the second part of William Wordsworth, A Biography, of which the first part was published in 1957. As the present volume begins at the end of 1803, before the completion both of the Ode: Intimations of Immortality from Recollections of Early Childhood and of The Prelude, its earlier chapters are concerned with Wordsworth still at the height of his poetic power. But in tracing the figure of Wordsworth through middle life into old age I have never felt that he became a less vividly inspired poet than in his earlier years” (“Preface,” p. vii).
See index for very extensive references to Dorothy Wordsworth.
Review: F. W. Bateson, New York Review, 19 December 1966.
