A DEGREE OF PHUDERY by Emily Hahn

A DEGREE OF PHUDERY

By

Pub Date: March 23rd, 1950
Publisher: Doubleday

A healthy, lively biography of Fanny Burney, the author of the charming novels of young girls in 18th century English society, which captured the fancy of the readers of that period. The book follows her self-educated growing up, her amazing success, and gives glimpses of the court and literary scene of the day. Excellent supplementary school material and delightful leisure-time reading for girls.
