"At its best...this volume reads like PRIDE AND PREJUDICE as recast by Margaret Mitchell. The tale of these belles is a decidedly unpretty one, a stone-cold romance with a colossally selfish heroine at its center. Fox approaches it clearheadedly, prying life from artifice, blessedly free of the illusion that all family histories command happy endings."James Fox is the author of 'Five Sisters: The Langhornes of Virginia', published 2001 under ISBN 9780743200424 and ISBN 074320042X.
