Excerpt from A Matter of Skill: A Novel
A man who would woo a fair maid, Should 'prentice himself to the trade, And study all day, in methodical way, How to flatter, cajole, and persuade. It is purely a matter of skill, Which all may attain if they will, But every Jack he should study the knack If he wants to make sure of his Jill!

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book is a delightful insight into the Victorian era, as seen through the eyes of a young woman experiencing the irksome constraints of polite society and the difficulties of securing her place within it. The author presents her beautiful, determined protagonist as a strong female character in 19th-century rural England where women are very much second-class citizens. The scandalous attentions of a suitor she doesn't love and the theft of her watch and purse all conspire to try to keep her down, but through a series of events, she ultimately triumphs over her persecutors and wins the day.
