A Self-Made Countess: The Justification Of A Husband is a novel written by John Strange Winter and published in 1900. The book tells the story of a woman named Lady Cynthia who marries a man named Lord Rexford for his title and wealth. However, she soon realizes that her husband is an abusive and cruel man who only married her for her money. Lady Cynthia decides to take matters into her own hands and sets out to become a successful businesswoman in order to gain financial independence and escape her unhappy marriage. Along the way, she meets and falls in love with a kind and supportive man named Sir John, but must navigate the challenges of her husband’s wrath and societal expectations. The novel is a tale of empowerment and self-determination, as Lady Cynthia defies the norms of her time to create a better life for herself.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
