Excerpt from A Modern ChronicleHonora has often pictured to herself a gay Villa set high above the curving shore, the amethyst depths Shad ing into emerald, laced with milk-white foam, the Vivid colours of the town, the gay costumes, the excursions, the dinner-parties presided over by the immaculate young consul in three languages, and the guests chosen from the haute noblesse of Europe. Such was the vision in her youthful mind, added to by degrees as She grew into young-ladyhood and surreptitiously became familiar with the writings of Ouida and the Duchess, and other litera ture of an educating cosmopolitan nature.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
