Seller's Description:
Very Good. Book. 8vo-over 7¾"-9¾" tall. xix, 252pp., index, notes, ill. "Begun in 1843, A Highland Lady in France has charm, vigour and intelligence on every page. It depicts vividly the day-to-day life of the family amongst British émigré society, while keeping up a running commentary on French society and manners, and commenting on political events at Westminster and Dublin, especially relating to civil unrest in Ireland focused on Daniel O'Donnell. Her sharp observations of all classes of society provide a memorable chronicle of her times, an insight into the mind of an enlightened landlord, and a unique contribution to the social history of both France and Ireland."
