Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from From Lady Washington to Mrs. Cleveland One hundred and fifty-six years ago, in the month of May, was born a girl, to whom the god-parents gave the name of Martha. Her father, of Welsh descent, was a Virginia planter of the olden style, by the name of Dandridge. In a home of ease, wealth, and refinement, the girl grew and blossomed into womanhood. In those days there were no United States, only colonies, which belonged to England, and the governors of each held vice-regal courts. Dinwiddie bore sway in Williamsburg, and to make court life attractive and gay, gathered about him all the youth and beauty of the colony. Miss Dandridge, just turned sixteen, became a belle in her first season, and when it was over she was the pledged wife of Colonel Custis, a man of distinction and great wealth. Marriage soon followed. Three children came in quick succession. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
