Illustrated with simple plans. Endpapers browned, prelims foxed, page 34 is marked to bottom corner otherwise a very clean and sound copy o…f a scarce and early piece of literature that explores time swopping. The work explores in detail the mysterious events that occurred to two learned women while visiting Versailles in the summer of 1901. In August of that year the Principal of St Hugh's College, Oxford, Charlotte "Annie" Moberly (1846-1937) and Eleanor Jourdain (1863-1924), who was about to take up the position of Vice Principal at the college, went on holiday to cement their personal and working relationship. On 10 August they visited Versailles where they experienced unexplained physical and mental symptoms and met a host of strange characters. Their experiences led them to later see the trip as one not to contemporary Versailles, but instead a Versailles just prior to the execution of Marie Antoinette.
