A Note From The Curator

I have been researching Lady Florence for over three years and in the middle of writing a full biography of her. Much has been written about her, but much has been overlooked or in my view distorted.
I have created this website so more people get to know her story and why she was one of the most incredible women of her time.

I highly recommend you read Across Patagonia. - Her incredible travelogue, when she rode across the untamed plains of Patagonia in 1878
