Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Journal of a Lady of Quality: Being the Narrative of a Journey From Scotland to the West Indies, North Carolina, and Portugal, in the Years 1774 to 1776
Revolution: and had she come earlier, we should have lacked a chronicler of a period of our own revolutionary history for which there exists no finer contemporary document than her J oumal. Not only does she describe graphically and inter estingly the natural scenery and social life of the places she visited - for she is a gifted letter writer, as other extant let ters of hers prove - but she gives us pictures of political life.
