Описание: Ellen Wayles Coolidge arrived in London in June 1838 at the advent of Queen Victoria’s reign. During her nine-month stay, Coolidge kept a diary that reveals the uncommon education of her youth, when she lived and studied at Monticello with her grandfather, Thomas Jefferson. London’s docks, theatres, parks, public buildings, and museums all come under Coolidge’s astute gaze as she travels the city and gradually gains entry into some of the most coveted drawing rooms of the time.
