Written throughout her life but only discovered after her death by her great-great nephew, Christopher Rush, Elspeth Marr's journal was never intended for publication. Her style of writing and the subject matter she covers nonetheless reaches a universal audience.
Not afraid to put forth views on the big topics - religion, evolution, and ethical issues - she also tackles the nuts and bolts of living. Among many gems you will find advice on everything: from dreams to garlic, patriotism to wrinkles.
Part journal, part self-help book, A Victorian Lady's Guide to Life provides a wealth of sound advice.
