A plot woven around charming characters in a sweet and magical style and a book that was just as popular when it came out as it is today, The Princess Aline is a love story with lots of unexpected twists and turns. In short, the story is about a young man, an artist who tries to meet a princess, hoping that they will fall in love with each other. He finds the princess indeed and he falls in love, too, but not with the princess ? her companion seems to be a better match for the young man. Written and published in 1895, The Princess Aline is by no means the tedious, slow-moving story one would expect of a love story written at the end of the 19th century. The events come one after the other and the reader is also witness to a substantial amount of character development. The young artist first looking for a way to conquer the princess practically grows up in front of the reader?s very eyes and learns that he must look for more than a pretty face if he wants to find real love. Richard Harding Davis was one of the last true Renaissance men. He was a successful playwright, a novelist, a journalist and he was also a successful businessman. He was a war correspondent in the Boer War as well as in World War I. He lived a very active life and he also travelled widely, England, France, Africa, South America, Greece, Russia and Spain being just a few of the places he went to and wrote about. The Princess Aline is certainly a love story, but it is also one written by someone used to writing in concise, straight-to-the-point style ? perhaps it is the combination of romance and common sense that makes this novella so entertaining and so popular among young and more mature modern readers alike., 0<
