Edward Craig, known as Teddy, also inscribed the book on the free front endpaper, "For Jake [last name unclear] with love. Teddy." Edward Gordon Craig (1872 - 1966) was a noted English modernist theatre practitioner; he worked as an actor, director and scenic designer, as well as developing an influential body of theoretical writings. Craig was the illegitimate son of famed actress Ellen Terry and architect Edward Godwin. In 1948 when he was 76, he moved to the South of France, where he spent the rest of his life. In 1958 his daughter Ellen (1904 - 1975), known as Nelly, went to take care of him. She wrote several letters to her brother Edward in England. The selection of letters in this volume give a clear, moving, and at times funny account of Craig's last years, and how towards the end he battled with old age. The book ends with an "appendix" that Nelly wrote after her father's death, when she herself was bedridden. It is an alphabetical list with comments of people, places, events, and objects that played an important part in Craig's life.
