Victorian Days in England

In 1851 Anna Maria came to England for a year to stay with her uncle Richard Sullivan Fay, who had rented a house in Shropshire. She wrote back some lively letters to various members of her family; these were printed in 1923 with the help of her niece Rosamond Hill Smith.

This volume has gone out of print, but is now being republished as a facsimile reprint with additional material & photographs by Julia Ionides & Peter Howell.
