Written by Marie Fox a foundling from France who was adopted by the childless Henry Fox 4th Baron Holland and later married Prince Louis of Liechtenstein. The inscription to the front pastedown from 'The Publishers' is addressed to Lady Baker: Florence Baker has a similar rags-to-riches story to Marie; born in Hungary as a child her family was killed in front of her and she was enslaved in the Ottoman Empire where she was discovered and rescued by Sir Samuel Baker the celebrated English explorer. Florence accompanied him on several of his expeditions up the Nile and across Africa before marrying him and finally settling down in England in 1873 the year before this book was published and became prominent socialites and abolitionists. Perhaps the two women knew each other as rare examples of Victorian social mobility. This is a heavy set and may require additional postage if being shipped outside of Europe. . Good. 1/4 Morocco.
