Synopsis
Altha: Or, Shells From The Strand by Ada M. Field. A nineteenth-century American novel, it follows the fortunes of Halvor Hazel, a cosmopolitan wanderer who returns to New England and becomes entwined with the Walton family after a series of personal trials. The narrative charts Halvor’s friendship with Ethan Eldridge, the misfortunes of the Walton children after their father’s death, and the trials of Altha, a quiet yet strong sister who endures poverty, temptation, and an abusive marriage. Across episodes of wealth, social ascent, and journeys between Boston, New York, and California, the tale weaves themes of duty, domestic virtue, and redemption. A manuscript frame within the story gathers shells from the strand as reflections on love, faith, and the costs of pursuing lofty ideals. The work is didactic, blending romance with moral inquiry into freedom, religion, and society’s responsibilities toward the vulnerable.
