About this book
Bertha Thomas calls her work an attempt to prepare for English readers a brief sketch that shall at least indicate all the more salient features of a life of singularly varied aspect. The prefatory note says the authentic materials available for an account of the life of George Sand, although lately increased by the publication of a large part of her correspondence, are still incomplete.
The text says Aurore grew up her grandmother's ward, with Nohant for her home, a home she was to keep, knowing no other, till the end of her life. The text says the heroine, Consuelo, is of course an ideal character, and that her achievements partake of the marvellous. The text names La Comtesse de Rodolstadt as a continuation which followed immediately in the Revue Indépendante, 1843. The text says the work marks more strongly than Mauprat the change that had come over the spirit of George Sand's compositions.
