My Aunt Margaret's Mirror

My Aunt Margaret's Mirror is a novel written by Sir Walter Scott. The story revolves around a young man named Harry Bertram, who is forced to flee his home in Scotland after being accused of murder. He travels to America and eventually returns to Scotland, where he discovers a family secret involving a cursed mirror that has been passed down through generations. The mirror is said to reveal the true nature of the person who looks into it, and Harry must confront his own past and the sins of his ancestors in order to break the curse. Along the way, he encounters various characters, including his Aunt Margaret, who plays a pivotal role in the story. The novel explores themes of family, identity, and the consequences of one's actions.Lady Bothwell listened to her sister without attempting to console her. Probably she might be of opinion that even the worst intelligence which could be received from Flanders might not be without some touch of consolation; and that the Dowager Lady Forester, if so she was doomed to be called, might have a source of happiness unknown to the wife of the gayest and finest gentleman in Scotland. This conviction became stronger as they learned from inquiries made at headquarters that Sir Philip was no longer with the army--though whether he had been taken or slain in some of those skirmishes which were perpetually occurring.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
