Miss Biddy Frobisher: A Saltwater Story is a novel written by Anne Manning. The story is set in the early 19th century and follows the life of Biddy Frobisher, a young woman who lives in a small fishing village in Cornwall. Biddy is a strong and independent character, who is determined to make her own way in the world. The book explores themes of love, loss, and the struggle for independence in a society that is dominated by men. Biddy's journey takes her from the fishing village to London, where she becomes a governess to a wealthy family. Along the way, she falls in love with a young man named William, who is also from Cornwall. As Biddy navigates the challenges of her new life in London, she must also confront the painful memories of her past. She grapples with the loss of her mother, the betrayal of a close friend, and the difficult choices she must make to secure her own future. Miss Biddy Frobisher: A Saltwater Story is a beautifully written novel that captures the spirit of a bygone era. Manning's descriptions of the Cornish landscape and the bustling streets of London are vivid and evocative, and her characters are richly drawn and full of life. This is a book that will appeal to anyone who loves historical fiction, romance, or stories of strong women who defy the odds.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
