Daughters Of Britannia: Lives & Times Of Diplomatic Wives
by Katie Hickman
Publisher Flamingo
Year 2000
ISBN 0006387802
Format Paperback
Size 20 by 13cm with 321 pages
From the first exploratory expeditions into foreign lands, through the heyday of the British Empire and still at the end of the millennium, the foreign service has been shaped and run behind the scenes by the wives of ambassadors and minor civil servants. Accompanying their spouses in the most extraordinary, tough, sometimes terrifying circumstances, they have struggled to bring their civilization with them. Their stories - from ambassadresses downwards - are a feast of eccentricity, genuine hardship and genuine heroism.
Light wear & small marks to cover, otherwise very good condition
