AbstractHistoryArchive Description

English tale of domestic estrangement in provicial society. Ceaseless arguments at last separate a husband and wife but the husband has his revenge by presenting his wife's new gown to her local rival, a widow, who so wins the eye of a visiting prince of Royal blood at the local society garden-party. Marital revenge, light; humour with mysoginist undertones. (PB)
