Christina Georgina Jane Reeve was the second wife of Henry Reeve (1813-95). Henry Reeve's position as editor of the Edinburgh review allowed the Reeves to move in leading social, literary, and political circles of London and Paris of their time. The collection consists of bound typescript copies of Christina Reeve's correspondence and journals documenting the Reeves' literary, social, and political circles, often mentioning literary figures such as Charles Dickens, William M. Thackeray, Harriet Martineau, Harriet Beecher Stowe, Mrs. Gaskell, George Eliot, Matthew Arnold, and Alfred Lord Tennyson.
