aussiegirlinuk 's review for:

4.0

I initially picked up this book being a fan of the TV Show "Downton Abbey" and believing the character Lady Cora was based on Almina, the real-life Countess of Carnarvon.

Within pages, I was completely lost in this real-life tale of love, sacrifice, adventure and heartache. The tag line of "sometimes fact is more interesting than fiction" has never been more appropriate.

Remarkable story about a remarkable woman. Captivating.
