Proud Northern Lady

Viac o knihe

Anne Clifford died in 1676, full of years and honors. This is the impressive portrait of a powerful personality. She lives on, in Martin Holmes' remarkable biography, in Craven, where she was born; in Kent, where she was mistress of Knole; in Wiltshire, where M498 she saw the rebuilding of Wilton under Inigo Jones; and, most of all, in Westmorland where, in her several ancestral castles, she spent her indomitable old age.
