Produktinformationen zu „Marblehead's Pygmalion (ePub)“
Agnes Surriage, it turns out, was more Pygmalion than Cinderella. Her role models were the fiercely independent "e;codfish widows, "e;? wives of the early Marblehead fishermen who managed home and family seven months a year without their husbands. In Agnes's version of My Fair Lady, she had to act as her own Henry Higgins while making the often painful transformation from "e;girl of all works"e;? at the Fountain Inn to the charming and dignified Lady Agnes, wife of Sir Charles Henry Frankland. After deconstructing the legend for twenty-five years, author F. Marshall Bauer has unearthed a story of money, lust and vindication.
