The Lady of the Manse Author:Lavinia Derwent Young girls - especially those brought up on a farm - aren't usually expected to act as "Lady of the Manse." But when Lavinia Derwent's elder brother Henry took up a ministry in Berwickshire, she was suddenly catapulted into a startlingly different world.
Utterly charming, nostalgic look back at rural life seen thru the eyes of the sister of the Minister of the parish, the "Lady of the Manse." Sweet, gentle and amusing rememberances of the early 20th century in Scotland.
