The Story Of Elizabeth; Two Hours And From An Island (1905)

The Story of Elizabeth; Two Hours and From an Island is a novel written by Anne Thackeray Ritchie and published in 1905. The book tells the story of Elizabeth, a young woman who lives on an island with her family. Elizabeth is intelligent, kind, and curious, but she is also sheltered and naive. When a group of visitors comes to the island, Elizabeth is fascinated by their stories and experiences. She begins to question her own life and the limitations placed upon her by her family and society. As she explores new ideas and experiences, Elizabeth must confront the tensions between tradition and progress, duty and desire, and the expectations of others and her own desires. The novel is a thoughtful exploration of the complexities of identity, freedom, and self-discovery, and is considered one of Ritchie's most accomplished works.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
