It is a cold January morning in 1796 when a ship docks in Boston Harbor. Among its passengers is an English theatre troupe that includes their leader, Mrs. Elizabeth Arnold, and her young daughter, Betty. Hired by Charles Stuart Powell for the reopening of a Boston theatre, the troupe makes their way to the theater with baggage in tow. A new life is about to begin. A short time later, the troupe is unpacked and ready for opening night. As Mrs. Arnold makes her stage debut in America, Betty meets John Howard Payne, a precocious young man who introduces her to an exciting world she never knew existed. After her mother takes her troupe on a summer tour, Betty makes her own stage debut to rave reviews. But when a horrifying accident suddenly takes the life of her mother, a now fourteen-year-old Betty, who now goes by Elizabeth, has no idea that her destiny will soon lead her to a secret affair, two marriages, and to become the mother of three children, one being Edgar Allen Poe. Morning 1808 interweaves the adventures of a nineteenth century theatre troupe with a young woman's journey of self-discovery in America as she learns to survive on her own and attempts to make her dreams come true.

This delightfully written book, the sequel to Dr Walsh's Opera in Dublin 1705-1797 (Allen Figgis, 1973), traces the history of the Crow Street Theatre in Dublin under the management of Frederick Jones. Drawing upon reports in newspapers and journals of the time, Dr Walsh chronicles with wit, verve, and humour, two decades of theatrical and operatic life in Dublin. This was a period which saw the decline of the English ballad opera and pasticcio and the rise of Italian opera and bel canto, including the first productions in Ireland of Mozart's Cosi fan tutte and Don Giovanni. Such famous singers of the time as Angelica Catalani, John Braham, Giuseppe Naldi, Giuseppe Ambrogetti, Michael Kelly, Teresa Bertinotti Radicati and Catherine Stephens are the subject of many vivid descriptions and anecdotes. Technical advances in the theatre, from the 'few hundred gallons of Spermaceti oil' required in 1800 to the installation of gas lighting in 1819, form an important part of the story. Neither the reader interested in the social history of Dublin at the turn of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, nor the student of colourful operatic and theatrical conditions in a transitional age will be disappointed by this book.
