| Summary | "Leaves From the Journal of Our Life in the Highlands, From 1848 to 1861" by Victoria is a historical account written in the late 19th century. This work encapsulates the author's personal reflections and experiences during her time in the Scottish Highlands, alongside her family and various royal excursions. It provides an intimate glimpse into both the natural beauty of the region and the simple joys of royal life away from public duties. The beginning of the journal presents the context of its creation, detailing how a decision was made to compile the Queen's writings into a volume for the royal family and their close acquaintances. The editor emphasizes the charm and simplicity of the entries, which recount the Queen’s impressions and experiences amidst the stunning Scottish landscapes and the company of her late husband, Prince Albert. The entries note moments of joy, exploration, and appreciation of nature, setting the tone for the personal and evocative narrative that follows throughout the journal. The opening reveals her admiring descriptions of the Highland scenery and the cultural encounters during their travels. (This is an automatically generated summary.) |
