About This Item

New York:: Basic Books (HarperCollins),, (1993.). Hardcover first edition -. Fine in fine dust jacket (appears unread, but with a remainder line.). First printing. "The promises of 'Liberty, equality, and fraternity' did not extend to women, but with the publication of Blood Sisters, the voices of the women who witnessed the French Revolution are finally restored to history. The memoirists portray themselves as active participants cheering the Revolution on its course or, more frequently, resisting it." Based on 80 accounts of the Revolution left by women, from the 16 page testimonial by the wife of the concierge in Marie-Antoinette's prison to the 10 volume memoirs of Mme de Genlis. Illustrated, notes, index. 308 pp.

Synopsis

Blood Sisters is a critically acclaimed 2005 book by Barbara and Stephanie Keating. The book concerns the life stories of three girls: the Irish Sarah Mackay, an Afrikaner Hanna Van der Beer and British Camilla Broughton Smith. The book follows their journey from being brought up in Kenya, until their lives diverge and their hopes and dreams are destroyed, and their bond almost with it.
