Manifest Destiny

Bag om Manifest Destiny

A Manifest Destiny tells the story of Bettina Mowbray, a sweet-natured and beautiful American girl who meets the heir of a British lord. He falls madly in love with her and they are engaged to be married. But his cousin, Lord Hurdly, is vehemently opposed to the union and Bettina's attempts to win him round are fruitless. Instead Bettina receives an offer and makes a decision that seems to doom her for a life of unhappiness and disappointment... This charming love story from 1900 may sound highly fanciful, but Julia Magruder's own cousin Helen had married a Baron to become Lady Abinger, so she had recent family experience on which to draw. This text of this elegant new hardcover from Benediction Classics has been carefully re-edited but includes the first edition's six black and white illustrations.
