Reviewed in Brief

This is a Jane Austen kind of book by a naive lady who doesn’t write very well, but who has a great deal to tell. She has a curiously innocent charm and can tell a scandal about Jenny Lind and the Duke of Wellington like a perfect lady. The Princess was a granddaughter of Queen Victoria and died recently at eighty-four. She sprinkles the book with nuggets of history and good stories.
