Description

'Life In Mexico, During A Residence Of Two Years In That Country' by Mme. Calderon De La Barca, c.1951.
Frances "Fanny" Erskine Inglis, later the Marquesa of Calderón de la Barca (1804 - 1882) was born into the Scottish nobility and was a 19th-century travel writer best known for her 1843 account, Life in Mexico, which is widely regarded by historians as one of the most influential Latin American travel narratives of the 19th century. Originally published in 1843, Frances Calderon de la Barca, gives her spirited account of living in Mexico, from her travels with her husband through Mexico as the Spanish diplomat, to the daily struggles with finding good help. Frances gives the reader an enlivened picture of the life and times of a country still struggling with independence.
This volume is half bound in a dark blue leather with five raised bands and gilt stamped decoration to the spine. Marbled boards. Attractive bookplate to the front endpaper of 'Audrey Farquhar'. There is some light age tone in areas but generally the book remains clean and bright.
