Two Penniless Princesses is a novel written by Charlotte M. Yonge. The story revolves around two sisters, Princesses Adelaide and Sophia, who are left penniless after the death of their father, the Duke of Netherfield. The sisters are forced to leave their luxurious lifestyle and move to a small cottage in the countryside with their governess, Miss Selina. The novel follows the sisters as they adjust to their new life and try to make ends meet. Adelaide, the elder sister, is determined to find a way to support herself and her sister, while Sophia is more interested in finding a wealthy husband. Along the way, they meet various characters, including the kind-hearted Lady Maria, who becomes their friend and supporter. As the sisters navigate their new life, they also face challenges and obstacles. Adelaide struggles to find work and support her sister, while Sophia falls in love with a man who is not wealthy enough to support her lifestyle. The novel explores themes of family, love, and the importance of perseverance in the face of adversity. Overall, Two Penniless Princesses is a heartwarming story that will appeal to fans of historical fiction and romance. It offers a glimpse into the lives of two sisters who must learn to survive on their own and find happiness in unexpected ways.George Douglas's chivalrous venture in defence of the falcon of his lady-love had certainly not done much for him hitherto, as Davie observed. The Lady Joanna, as every one now called her, took it as only the bounden duty and natural service of one of her suite, and would have cared little for his suffering for it personally.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
