A++++ bonkers. Gaspingly bonkers. Someone needs to base 20.5 books on her life (calmer sidekick and surprise black child included).

This story of Lady Anne Barnard's life reads much like a novel would of an unusual heroine living in a similar time period. I knew nothing of Lady Anne before picking this book up, and I come away full of admiration for her. The author does a wonderful job bringing her to life using journal entries and letters. At times I felt slightly overwhelmed by all of the people named in the story, and lost track of some of them. Overall, though, an enjoyable book about an extraordinary woman.
