More about the book
Happily married, but insolvent, Prince Hermann von Pückler-Muskau (1785–1871) and his wife Lucie devised a plan to save their beloved they would divorce and Pückler would go to England to marry an heiress. Based on the princeâ€s letters reporting his progress to Lucie, this book is a blow-by-blow account of Pücklerâ€s courtships, but also a portrait of Regency England through the eyes of an intelligent, observant and, at one point, lovesick fortune hunter.
