An American Princess: The Many Lives of Allene Tew by Annejet van der Zijl

4.0

Disclosure: I received an advance copy from the author via Netgalley. All opinions are my own

A fascinating read about Allene Tew. I had never heard of her but after reading this book I’m surprised that I hadn’t. She had a fascinating life that spanned truly interesting times and showed that with gumption and a little luck the world is your oyster.

This is a translated book and I found the cadence a little odd. I read an uncorrected proof however so this may change in the final
product. Don’t let this put you off though as it’s a minor inconvenience to read about her surprising life.
