Her golden hair was shining in the gold of the sun; her complexion was of a dazzling bloom; her lips smiling, and her eyes beaming with a kindness which made Harry Esmond's heart to beat with surprise.- find out how the story ends with this beautiful pocket edition.","brand":"Country House Library","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55903929270651,"sku":"10652758","price":9.79,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2458\/8207\/files\/orig_491775_jpg.jpg?v=1762536995","url":"https:\/\/countryhouselibrary.co.uk\/products\/w-mthackerays-esmond-nelson","provider":"Country House Library ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
