Following the success of The Vanished Pomps of Yesterday, Lord Frederic Hamilton, a duke’s son and former diplomat, returns to his lumber-room of recollections. He offers scenes of mid-Victorian childhood and country houses, the opera and ballet of his youth, and travels and court occasions, promising neither revelations nor scandal, only the everyday life of a vanished world.
Charming, anecdotal memoirs for readers who enjoy the texture of upper-class Victorian and Edwardian life. Download the free EPUB.
