Summary: Disappointing
Comment: I was looking on a resource on daily life in Victorian America. This seemed like the perfect find. Upon getting it home however, I was badly disappointed. Sprinkled with the dryest English wit imaginable, it is essentially the story of a regular person. Apart from her distinguished company, there is little of interest in her life. She travelled frequently, but only did the same thing in other countries as she did in her own - attended cocktail parties, operas, balets, balls and the like. It is reminiscent of the peaceful chapters in War and Peace. On and on, in droning monotone, event after tedious event is described to her somehow interested mother. It does say one thing about rich Victorians: they were boring!
