Catherine Dickens is far less known than her legendary husband, Charles. When you think about Victorian novels, his name is the first one to pop up. But the story of Mrs. Dickens life is very much like a novel itself. Catherine was not only a brave traveler, but a good actress, an excellent cook, and even a writer. She acted in Charles amateur plays and wrote and published a cookbook that was a bestseller.
