E. Marshall's \u003ci\u003eOur Island Story\u003c\/i\u003e for Christmas. The book sparked a passion that, thirty years later, inspired her to write the acclaimed biography \u003ci\u003eMary, Queen of Scots\u003c\/i\u003e. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIn these pages, Fraser turns her biographical skills inward to capture her own remarkable life story. From her idyllic early childhood to a wartime evacuation to North Oxford; from her education at a Catholic convent to holidays spent at Dunsany Castle and Pakenham Hall; from her days working in publishing to a turf battle with her mother over who would write about the Queen of Scots, \u003ci\u003eMy History\u003c\/i\u003e is a singular, heartfelt memoir--and a love letter to a British way of life that has all but disappeared.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Anchor Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/29\/2016\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781101910214\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 304\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.60lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.00h x 5.10w x 0.60d","brand":"Antonia Fraser","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44207239004341,"sku":"9781101910214","price":13.6,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/files\/img_6384ea60-8354-415c-8997-88d2562ac8bc.jpg?v=1716908370","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/my-history-a-memoir-of-growing-up-9781101910214","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
