Under the pseudonym Louis Lloyd, writer and journalist Lily Lewis was regularly featured in the newspaper The Week, and her hugely popular column "Montreal Letter" was for some time a staple in the Toronto newspaper. She also accompanied writer Sara Jeannette Duncan on a journey around the world which later became the subject of Duncan's fictional work, in which Lewis was immortalized as a character. Consequently, Lewis's work has largely been overlooked, though she continued to publish a variety of work from her home in Paris until 1912. Part critical study, part biography, Martin's book examines the published work and private letters of Lily Lewis in an attempt to reconstruct this important figure in turn-of-the-century Canadian journalism. Lilly Lewis: Sketches of a Canadian Journalist puts into context the uniquely feminine aspects of this writer's life, outlining the prevalence of social concerns and domestic themes, but also the more typically masculine domain of European art and culture, prompting a serious re-evaluation of Canadian feminist expression in the nineteenth century.
