By LUCY MEACHAM THRUSTON, author of “Mistress
Brent,” “A Girl of Virginia,” etc.
Illustrated. 12mo. $1.50
In her new story Mrs. Thruston portrays a heroine as charming as her delightful “Girl of Virginia.” The scenes of the novel are laid at Norfolk and Portsmouth, and the vicissitudes of the Southern vegetable farmer, who depends on the irrepressible negro, are strongly pictured. The novel is a genuine love-story with a touch of politics, and the Southern atmosphere is delightfully unhackneyed.
