in Virginia. They have probably devoted more time than any one else to the study of this intricate and fascinating question; but study alone cannot account for their complete and easy competence.” Edith Wharton

The Victorianachronists 
Haha the Charles Dickens one made me laugh. 🙂 You’ve got a good sense of humour.
This blog is absolutely my cup of tea 🙂
Stumbled upon your blog by complete (fateful) accident, while drawling around on wordpress postponing the tediousness of beginning my very own blog (where to start?!), and by clicking on a link I did not really want to click, but knew I should, and tada! I found a few contemporaries also more interested in past contemporaries.. I adore your blog! So glad that I happened to discover it tonight. Going to check in very regularly from here on.
Best testimonials ever!
Haha! These did make me chuckle, especially the comment from Mr Darcy ;). I love reading your blog, it is so witty and inspired me to write my own post dedicated to old fashioned gentlemen :).
Thank you for the lovely compliment! I tried to visit your blog, but the link does not seem to work.
