Excerpt from Lucy Fitzadam, Vol. 1 of 2: An AutobiographyMy way is to begin with the beginning, The regularity of my designForbids all wandering as the worst of sinning. - Byron.These things were the Alphabet, whereby in after-time (s)he was to syllable and partly read the grand volume of the world. - Carlyle.My name is Lucy: I am the only daughter of Francis Fitzadam, a solicitor of Westford, Somersetshire. If any apology be needed because an obscure woman here relates her own experiences, that apology must be sought, and will I believe be found, in the nature of the tale, and in the manner of the telling. By this I mean that my history has been no common one, and that I shall rehearse it with candour and without pretension.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
