Louisa - Elizabeth Dubois - Bog

For some, settlement of the United States frontier can be reduced to a mere footnote. For Louisa Wilton, a young South Carolina debutante, a journey to the Alabama Territory in 1818 meant leaving behind civility and enlightenment. In this second installment of the Louisa saga that began with Louisa: The Wilds of Alabama, the heroine continues to pen her thoughts and feelings in her journal. Readers lean over her shoulder and watch as Louisa meshes fact and fiction so seamlessly, it is hard to separate the two. Written in the style of a true genteel Southern lady, this tale continues to follow Louisa in her first several years in Alabama. Young Louisa's penchant for fictionalizing and enhancing the events of her actual life lands her in hot water more than once. Can Louisa separate real life from her imagined world? Only time, and our continued voyeurism, will tell.
