Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from For the Freedom of the Sea: A Romance of the War The beautiful Anne Fitzhugh sprang, from one of the proudest and oldest of those great Virginia families, whose achievements in the past had given that fair Commonwealth such remarkable pre-eminence in the small family of nations, which then made up the United States of America. The beautiful Anne Fitzhugh´s pride in her ancestry was as great as her descent was long. That they had been Tories in the Revolution in no way diminished her reverence for the name she bore. She even looked upon the warm friendship, which had subsisted between her father and a certain other great Virginian of so exalted a character that he had been chiefest in all the nation -and through whose paramount influence the family estates, somewhat diminished in extent and curtailed as to revenue, had been saved from confiscation, which was the American reward for unappreciated services to King George III. - as a blot on the scutcheon of the family history.
