913 pages. The complete Lucia, including: Queen Lucia; Lucia in London; Miss Mapp; The Male Impersonator; Mapp and Lucia; The Worshipful Lucia; and Trouble for Lucia. Author is E.F.Benson, introduction by Nancy Mitford.
E.F.Benson began writing the histories of Mrs Emmeline Lucas (Lucia) of Riseholme and Miss Elizabeth Mapp of Tilling in the 1920's; and these six books, and one short story-published for the first time in one magnificent volume-form an exquisite tapestry of life in two delightful English towns. This book is very large and heavy.
