Summary of mary s. lovell's the sisters

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 Sydney Bowles was fourteen years old when she first set eyes on David Freeman Mitford. He was seventeen, classically handsome, and with luminous blue eyes. She felt all the natural frustration of a teenager wanting to look older to impress him, but she was miserably aware that her outfit labeled her a child. #2 David Mitford, the second son of Lord and Lady Redesdale, was extremely energetic and popular with everyone but his parents, who preferred his brother Clement. He was sent to Radley, which was considered second rate, and he loathed his time there. #3 Sydney's teenage crush on David did not last. She grew up and was launched into Society, and she had a number of relationships with men. She became engaged to Edward Jimmy Meade, but she discovered that he was a womanizer. #4 David's letters to his parents confirm his early intuition that the Army was the career he would enjoy above all others. He had always longed for a career in the Army, and when he was badly injured in the chest in the Boer War, he was invalided home.
