Book Description
London: Macmillan. Very Good+/Very Good+. 1977. First Edition. Hardback. 0333214927 272pp. Clementina Carey was the daughter of a crofter on the east coast of Scotland, and this historical novel by her great-grandson chronicles the rise in her fortunes and the adventures that befell her on the way. It is a story whose main features can be paralleled in many families whose Scottish forebears rose from poverty owing to their enterprise and faith in education. The facts have inspired a rich and eventful narrative which is also a study of a courageous woman. But, though the basic facts are true, this is a novel, not a family history. Dust-jacket has some minor rubbing to corners and edges; jacket is in loose protective cover. A clean copy in Very Good+ condition in a Very Good+ dust-jacket. .
