  Through compiling and transcribing the surviving manuscript records, this text combines the full range of Lady Anne Clifford's life, from her active life at court as the Countess of Dorset, her turbulent second marriage to the fourth Earl of Pembroke at Wilton in Wiltshire, and her final, long-disputed succession to her father's lands in Westmorland and North Yorkshire. The diaries are complemented by explanatory notes, family trees and illustrations. They provide both an important historical record and a glimpse into the life and character of Lady Anne.
