Penelope's Progress

Penelope's Progress is a collection of extracts from the commonplace book of Penelope Hamilton, a young American woman who travels to Scotland to visit her friend Lady Baird. The book is written by Kate Douglas Wiggin and is set in the late 19th century. The extracts are written in the form of diary entries, letters, and notes, and they document Penelope's experiences in Scotland, including her encounters with the local people, her travels to various parts of the country, and her observations on Scottish culture and customs. The book provides a charming and insightful glimpse into the life of a young woman traveling abroad in the late 19th century, and it offers a unique perspective on Scotland and its people.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
