It offers a vivid depiction of Victorian society and the challenges faced by women during this time period.She was very small in stature and proportions--quite a little fairy. Her cheek had the soft peachy hue of girlhood; nay, of very childhood. You would never have thought her a mother. She lay back, half-buried in the great arm-chair; and then, suddenly springing up from amidst the cloud of white muslins and laces that enveloped her, she showed her young, blithe face.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
