Aprašymas

Mrs. Elton goes farther! Crossing the Atlantic Ocean with her caro sposo and children, she enjoys high comedic adventures in Boston and New York society, makes a sobering visit to a Southern slave state, and sojourns among the Comanche Indians. It's no wonder her trip to America is the talk of Highbury... Praise for Mrs. Elton: "It's a delight to meet with old friends in new situations. America, where everything is bigger and better, is just the setting for the obnoxious but hugely entertaining Augusta Elton." -Maggie Lane, Author and Honorary Secretary, The Jane Austen Society of the United Kingdom "A polished virtuoso performance...it will surely entertain lovers of Austen's work and women's travel writing alike." -Ellen Moody, George Mason University "A comic gem!" -Audy Klein, Critic, Los Angeles CityBeat
