"Each of us a Kingdom of Mansoul". How do we rule ourselves?

She introduces us to the Officers of State who help us rule ourselves, including the Will, the Lords of the Heart, Attorney General Reason, the Esquires our Appetites, Chief Explorer Imagination and more. Miss Mason's beautiful allegories come to life with full color classic paintings from Frederic Leighton, Auguste Renoir, Jan Steen, John Everett Millais, Winslow Homer and more.
