Fanny: A Fiction follows Mrs. Frances Trollope from the time she met the radical and feminist Fanny Wright in the 1820's. This is a story of two quirky women who were out
to reform the world with their ideas of utopian ideals. They traveled through the USA
under very hard conditions, extreme penury, frontier perils and sensual romance as well.
This is a novel of powerful women and their time. Great historical fiction.
