A late Victorian writer and poet, he is best remembered for an early biography of Dorothy Wordsworth and for books that highlighted women's lives and literary history. His work is closely linked with Dove Cottage in England's Lake District, where he once owned the famous Wordsworth home.

by Edmund Lee
Edmund Lee was a British writer, poet, and biographer active in the late 19th century. He is best known for Dorothy Wordsworth: The Story of a Sister's Love (1887), an early book-length study of Dorothy Wordsworth that helped draw attention to her life and influence.
Lee also wrote Some Noble Sisters and published poetry, including Hinemoa and Other Poems. His interests seem to have centered on literary lives, family bonds, and the place of women in cultural history.
He is also connected with Dove Cottage at Grasmere: the cottage was bought by Edmund Lee in the late 1880s, and while it was in his possession he wrote the Dorothy Wordsworth biography. I couldn't confirm a reliable portrait of him from the sources I found, so no image is included.
