Defiance

The Extraordinary Life of Lady Anne Barnard

Stephen Taylor

Explore the unconventional life of Lady Anne Barnard, an eccentric artist and adventurer who lived at the heart of Georgian society. Despite her high social standing and numerous friends, she was always viewed as an outsider due to her defiance of convention. Discover her rejection of suitors, independent living, and solo travels to observe the French Revolution. Follow her surprising marriage to a younger army officer and their retreat to Africa. With access to unpublished memoirs, Stephen Taylor brilliantly brings Lady Anne Barnard out of the shadows and reveals her as one of the unheralded chroniclers of her time.
