Book Synopsis A Virginia Cousin, & Bar Harbor Tales by : Burton Mrs. Harrison
Download or read book A Virginia Cousin, & Bar Harbor Tales written by Burton Mrs. Harrison and published by Good Press. This book was released on 2021-04-26 with total page 92 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is an absorbing work by Mrs. Burton Harrison, an American playwright, and novelist. She tells a story of her and two of her cousins, known as the "Cary Invincibles." The three sewed the first examples of the Confederate Battle Flag. Excerpt "The little story "A Virginia Cousin," here put into print for the first time, is in some sort a tribute offered by a long-exiled child of the South to her native soil. It is also a transcript of certain phases of that life in the metropolis which has been pooh-poohed by some critics as trivially undeserving of a chronicler, but fortunate hitherto in finding a few readers willing to concede as much humanity to the "heroine in satin" as to the "confidante in linen.""
