Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Memoirs of Anna Maria Wilhelmina Pickering, Vol. 1: Together With Extracts From the Journals of Her Father, John Spencer Stanhope, Describing His Travels on the Continent, and His Imprisonment Under Napoleon In the first bitter moments of a return to a widowed home, my mother devoted all that remained to her of life to the good of her children. How steadfastly and bravely she laboured for them, they only can know. It was for her children, and for them alone, that the following pages were written: written during her last two years of feebleness and suffering; her frail body prostrate on a bed of sickness, and her hand scarce able to hold the pen. But, strong in her resolve, she struggled fearlessly and cheerfully, even to the end: true to herself and to her own high sense of duty; true as a woman rarely is, and true as, perhaps, a woman alone can be. Let thy children rise up and bless thee. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
