Excerpt from Recollections of Lady Georgiana Peel: Compiled by Her Daughter Ethel Peel Readers will observe when reading through these pages, how many are the quotations from National History and from family records. These are there by the kind permission of the authors and publishers to solidify and in some cases verify the recollections, which, covering so wide a space of time, might without them seem shadowy. I am particularly indebted to Mr. Basil Champneys for allowing some paragraphs from the "Life of Adelaide Drummond," a book which brought additional memories to the mind of her sister; to the Duke of Bedford for permission to insert some of the early letters of John sixth Duke of Bedford and those of his wife; to the Hon. Bertrand Russell for contributing his contradiction of Euclid fulfilling the prophecy of Sydney Smith; to Lady Agatha Russell for some letters already published in "Letters of Lady John Russell"; to the Hon. Mrs. Rollo Russell for a letter taken from "Early Correspondence of Lord John Russell"; to Lord Esher for permission to include a few extracts from the "Letters of Queen Victoria"; to Mr. Stuart Reid for an extract from "Life of Lord John Russell," and the letter of Count Cavour.

Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

In 1847, seventeen-year-old Miss Ellen Palmer had the world at her feet. A debutante at the start of her first London season, Ellen was beautiful, rich and accomplished and about to experience the world of dances, opera visits and dinner parties which were a rite-of-passage for young women of her class. To record the glittering whirl of activity, Ellen started writing a diary, a unique daily account which was discovered over a century later by her descendants. For Ellen, the path to true love did not run smooth - after a scandalous encounter with a duplicitous Swedish count, her marriage prospects were dealt a heavy blow. But Ellen was a woman ahead of her time. Undeterred by her increasing social isolation, she set off on a treacherous trip across Europe in pursuit of her beloved brother Roger, an officer in the Crimean War. In doing so she became one of the first women to visit the battlefield at Balaclava. Ellen's diaries provide a first-hand account of the realities of debutante life in Victorian London whilst also telling the story of an inspirational young woman, her quest for love and her spectacular journey from the ballroom to the battlefield.
