Interesting from a different era
Based on the fact that this was an actual account from 1739-1762 - I found it an amazing record of History. It was not an easy read because of words used - but I was very impressed that a young girl from that time in history could write so very well.Bestätigter Kauf: JaArtikelzustand: Gebraucht
