Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Story of Two Salons
Forties, railways and regular education, chased the last dear ghosts away, nor have they returned, even for an hour. It is stirring, however, to summon them before us; to see them as they painted themselves and each other, from every side, in many memoirs, in countless letters, still warm with life and its yearnings and to discover, if that were possible, the secret of the charm they shed about them.
