Sobre este artículo
New York/London: The Macmillan Company, 1906. Stoker writes in his Preface that he knew the great actor/manager for three decades (having worked with him, starting in 1878). It is assumed that Irving served as the inspiration for Stoker's "Dracula" - perhaps an unwanted legacy. This memoir was published a year after Irving's death..
