Description

An absolute eye-awakening story. A beautiful, radiant girl is swept aside when she has to start wearing glasses. It was not usual for ladies to sport specs and the term "men don't make passes at girls that wear glasses" was not only true in the 19th-century but generally believed. A fun story especially when she goes blind and can no longer see herself. A nobleman refuses her but her steady companion loves her with or without the glasses. When I think of how fashionable glasses are today, it's almost unbelievable. Of course, the glasses at that time were anything but attractive, according to Mr. James.
