Anne Clifford (1590-1676) was born into a noble family in England. Upon her fathers death, her uncle claimed the estates she believed herself to have inherited; after many years of litigation, she reclaimed the estates and began an extensive program of rebuilding churches and castles. The Memoir, written when she was only thirteen, is a vivid account of the year that Elizabeth I died and was succeeded by James I. Cliffords family was close to Elizabeth, and their status was threatened by the change in monarch. The Memoir is only about ten pages long. The diary of 1616-19 addresses her legal battles more directly, as well as her everyday life, religious observances, her relationship with her family, and her travels.Pembroke, Anne Clifford Herbert is the author of 'Memoir of 1603 And the Diary of 1616-1619 ', published 2007 under ISBN 9781551113395 and ISBN 1551113392.
