A very handsome collection. Ramé or de la Ramé 1839-1908 English novelist and daughter of English and French parents was a successful novelist who under the pseudonym published over 40 novels as well as short stories children's books and essays. In the 1860s she lived in a Langham's Hotel London where she lived lavishly and held literary salons attended by many leading contemporary figures from the political and literary worlds and many of her stories and characters were based on attendees. In about 1871 she moved to Italy where she continued to live in great style but ended up in penury. She was an advocate of animal rights and a staunch anti-vivisectionist. "In her early period her novels were considered 'racy' and 'swashbuckling' a contrast to 'the moralistic prose of early Victorian literature' . and a hybrid of the sensationalism of the 1860s and the proto-adventure novels being published as part of the romanticisation of imperial expansion. Later her work was more typical of historical romance though she never stopped commenting on contemporary society. . Under Two Flags 1867 one of her most famous novels described the British in Algeria. It expressed sympathy for the French colonists – with whom Ouida deeply identified – and to some extent the Arabs. The novel was adapted for the stage and was filmed six times. Her 1872 novel A Dog of Flanders is considered a children's classic in much of Asia.
