Book Description

Memoirs of a Highland Lady is one of the most famous memoirs ever written. Since its first bowdlerised edition in 1898, it has been consistently in print. This is the first ever complete text. Written between 1845 and 1854 the memoirs were originally intended simply for Elizabeth's family, but these vivid and inimitable records of life in the early nineteenth century, and above all of the great Rothiemurchus estate, full of sharp observation and wit, form an unforgettable picture of her time.

Excerpt from Memoirs of a Highland Lady: The Autobiography of Elizabeth Grant of Rothiemurchus Afterwards Mrs. Smith of Baltiboys, 1797-1830 Mrs. Smith began writing her recollections in 1845, during a visit of some length to Avranches, and concluded the portion here printed in 1867. That they should contain some errors and inaccuracies is natural in the circumstances; but these are of small importance, and the picture of the writer's life and surroundings is unmistakably a genuine and faithful re ection of her impressions.
