Nashborough by Elsie Burch Donald

A turbulent saga and rich read, set in the exotic world of the American Deep South in the first half of this century.

'This intelligently capacious book takes us from the American twenties through to the sixties as two dynasties from the American South struggle to survive the momentous changesNashborough will appeal to readers of Edith Wharton – or even Thomas Mann.' Salley Vickers, author of Miss Garnet’s Angel

'This is one of those relentlessly gripping books that can be recommended as a good summer read. But its author's forceful intelligence, sure grasp of history and sense of class make it something both more provocative and more durable.' Francis King, Literary Review

Elsie Burch Donald was born in Nashville, Tennessee, and is a member of one of America’s oldest families, the Polks. She now lives in London and south-west France.

Creator and editor of Debrett’s Etiquette & Modern Manners, and author of The French Farmhouse: Its history, construction and regional styles, Nashborough is her first novel.
