IN LATE MARCH 1663, a young woman crossed the English Channel, seeking refuge in London from several unwanted suitors. Thus began one of the most intriguing mysteries in feminist literary history—a mystery that even now remains unsolved. Put simply, who was she? Who was the “German Princess?” THE PRESENT NARRATIVE, in the form of her memoirs, captures the most memorable scenes and events of her life, including the horrors of the plague and Great Fire of 1666, mayhem in the London theatres, highway robbery, the slave markets of Jamaica, and even Morgan’s bloody exploits on the Spanish Main. In sum, it is a compelling tale of adventure and romance, and of a woman who dared challenge the privileges and mores of a male-dominated society.
