Excerpt from A Lady of the Olden Time
Records of such lives are like sweet pressed flowers, found in old family Bibles. Though the flower be dead the fragrance lingers. It penetrates other centuries, and breathes of something which in all ages has made life sweet and worth the living, bearing evermore constant testimony to the intense romance of History. E. M. M.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the life and times of Lady Alice Fenwick, an English noblewoman who journeyed to the New World in the 17th century. Set against the backdrop of colonial America, the narrative weaves together historical facts with imaginative storytelling to create a vivid portrait of a woman navigating the challenges and complexities of her era. The author explores themes of exile, resilience, and the enduring power of love as Lady Alice adapts to a new life amidst the hardships of colonial settlement. Through her experiences, readers gain insight into the social, religious, and political dynamics of early America. The story highlights the contrast between the comforts of English aristocratic life and the harsh realities faced by colonists in the untamed wilderness. Lady Alice's journey of self-discovery and her unwavering spirit offer a compelling testament to the human capacity for adaptation and the enduring legacy of those who helped shape the foundations of a nation.
