The Burges Letters: A Record Of Child Life In The Sixties is a book written by Edna Lyall and published in 1902. The book is a collection of letters that were written by a young girl named Mary Burges during the 1860s. The letters provide a fascinating insight into the life of a child growing up in England during this period. The book is divided into three parts, each of which covers a different period in Mary’s life. The first part covers the years 1860-1863, when Mary was between the ages of six and nine. The second part covers the years 1864-1866, when Mary was between the ages of nine and twelve. The third and final part covers the years 1867-1869, when Mary was between the ages of twelve and fourteen. Throughout the book, Mary writes to her cousins, aunts, and other family members about her daily life, her schooling, her hobbies, and her relationships with her family and friends. She also writes about the events of the time, including the American Civil War, the death of Prince Albert, and the Franco-Prussian War. The Burges Letters provides a unique and intimate glimpse into the life of a child growing up in England during the 1860s. It is a charming and engaging book that will appeal to anyone interested in social history, childhood, or the Victorian era.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
