AbstractHistoryArchive Description

Humorous tale of married life and jealousy. An English couple at Ghent during a fete for the London volunteers quarrel over a pretty American girl - who the husband mistakes for his wife during the fireworks and hoists onto his shoulders for the view. Further fireworks follow. Amusing, mysoginist. (PB)
