Anne Lister was a fascinating complicated person and this book presents her diaries and letters from the 1830s from when she met Ann Walker and when they were "married" ie season one of the show. This account firmly identifies Lister as a butch lesbian but doesn't mention that there is a lot of evidence of her gender nonconformity and that she didn't straightforwardly see herself as a woman, so that was disappointing. Butch lesbian is a totally valid interpretation of Lister from her writing but it doesn't feel right to pretend it's the only one. Anne Lister – Reading Anne's Diaries".

It’s sort of a biography of the incredible and iconic lesbian of the 19th century Anne Lister. She kept a diary for most of her life so much of this book is excerpts of her own writing with added explanation / shortened history to make it an easier read.

The diaries go on unabated to 1840, with the last entry written some 6 weeks before Lister’s death, and in fact the entries get more voluminous as time progresses, so most of the estimated 5 million words were actualy written from 1830 onwards.

So far as Lister and Walker were concerned, the shared Easter service was their stand-in wedding ceremony. They never mentioned this to the church, and their marriage went unrecognized in the eyes of the law.
