About this title

Synopsis

Happily married, but insolvent, Prince Hermann von P�ckler-Muskau (1785�€“1871) and his wife Lucie devised a plan to save their beloved estate: they would divorce and P�ckler would go to England to marry an heiress. Based on the prince�€s letters reporting his progress to Lucie, this book is a blow-by-blow account of P�ckler�€s courtships, but also a portrait of Regency England through the eyes of an intelligent, observant and, at one point, lovesick fortune hunter.
