The Naughty Diary of an Edwardian Lady presents a facsimile reproduction of Holden's personal diary for the year 1906, capturing in words and exquisite paintings her affairs and flirtations across the British countryside and the playgrounds of Europe through the changing seasons of the year — an intimate, unguarded portrait of a woman as vivid and spirited as the natural world she illustrated.\n\nBuilding on the extraordinary success of The Country Diary of an Edwardian Lady, this companion volume uncovers the more private, candid side of Holden's sensibility, revealing the personality behind the paintbrush. Her illustrations retain the delicate, botanically precise style that made her a beloved figure in the Arts and Crafts tradition, yet here they are set against a backdrop of personal adventure and social observation that renders them startlingly alive. For admirers of Edwardian life, natural history art, and the quiet courage of women who recorded their own stories, this volume leaves one wondering just how many secrets still lie pressed between its pages.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49210234667227,"sku":"2026200013171-SECONDHAND","price":15.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/10c6942c-7ce1-4dce-8dd0-8a338fcb3c87.png?v=1788267748","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026200013171-secondhand-the-naughty-diary-of-an-edwardian-lady","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
