More about the book
"Dorothea Herbert wrote these Retrospections as a diary, a form of personal therapy much needed after her thwarted love affair with the handsome John Roe of Rockwell House in County Tipperary." "Reminiscent of the novels of Jane Austen, the Retrospections of Dorothea Herbert breathes life into the Irish world of grand balls and sparkling parties. Personal tragedy is not far behind however, as pranks, deception and genteel mortification all conspire against Dorothea in her quest to find a husband."--BOOK JACKET.
