Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from News From the Duchy
Now though she lived remote from the daily life of her people, and in those early days was known to them for the most part as a voice singing wonderful songs to herself in her charmed garden amid the tide races, the Lady was in fact a shrewd woman of business. She had noted, on her Visits to London, that Londoners, as they grew prosperous, were growing ever fonder of ?owers; that not only did the great houses, the hotels, the restaurants require ?owers for their dinner tables, but even the poor clerk pinched his pocket for a bunch to carry home.
