Outpost by Jane Goodwin Austin. This nineteenth-century American tale of moral endurance and frontier aspiration follows the fortunes of Antoinette Legrange—Sunshine—whose birthday marks a string of trials from youthful privilege to peril in the city. Abandoned and lost, Sunshine is found by Teddy Ginniss and kept by his mother, Mrs. Ginniss, until she is eventually restored to her birth family and the care of Dora Darling Legrange, whose devotion leads to the founding of a western homestead, Outpost. The story charts Dora’s growth as a woman of action and faith, Teddy’s struggles with loyalty and guilt, and a circle of friends—Captain Karl Windsor, Tom Burroughs, Kitty Windsor—as they build a life in Iowa. Across episodes of disappearance, rescue, ransom, and renewal, the novel surveys charity, family, and the redemptive power of love in the American heartland. It juxtaposes urban hardship with rural enterprise, and culminates in a wedding and new beginnings for Dora and Karl, and a hopeful future for Sunshine.
