Straightforward and with no literary pretensions, her voice comes down the centuries, robust, clear, personal and often surprising: \"I do not complain at having been so far across the world, nor of my twelve years of slavery, nor of the suffering the Turks caused me, I can rise above that. But the spitefulness and derision that my husband and I suffered from our fellow-countrymen cannot be forgotten, and is impossible for me to set it down here in writing.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Caroline Stone\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1843822172\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781843822172\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardinge Simpole Limited\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/24\/2010\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 188\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.62lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.43d","brand":"Caroline Stone","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47759755837695,"sku":"9781843822172","price":23.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_711ec6e8-6fa9-432a-960f-6378c749d307.jpg?v=1765512883","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/curious-and-amazing-adventures-of-caroline-stone-9781843822172","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
