The Chevalier de Boufflers. A Romance of the French Revolution

Some Press Opinions of "The Chevalier de Boufflers" "A book that holds the reader's attention throughout. The plot of escape that failed owing to the unflinching heroism of her young son-in-law, and the adventures-by turns amorous and agonising-of her fascinating daughter in the prison of the Carmes are fine and thrilling, and completely illustrative of the period."— Daily Chronicle . "Mrs. Webster's charming book exhibits a fascinating picture of life and manners of a little-known but enthralling period of the French Monarchy."— Daily Telegraph. "One of the most engaging and graceful, as it is one of the least hackneyed, of the real romances of the period immediately preceding the outburst. . . . Mrs. Webster has told the story with the charm it deserves. "— Daily News . "Mrs. Webster has made the loves of the Chevalier de Boufflers and Madame de Sabran a peg on which to hang a vivid and highly interesting account of one of the most pathetic episodes recorded in history.… She possesses all the true qualities necessary in order to present to her countrymen and countrywomen a true picture of the most terrible transition from gay ta grave which the world has ever witnessed."— Spectator .
