Evidence

George Eliot to Barbara Bodichon, London, 16 November 1874. "A prospective welcome to you! We will find you an edifying book when you come -- Tylor's Early History of Mankind, if you have not read it, or something else as good. Meanwhile you ought to be in great mental vigour compared with your fellow-mortals who muddle and enfeeble themselves with reading." GEL 6: 90
