A beautiful, lyrical prose, strong sense of place, and keen, empathetic observations of declining New England life, though some find the early focus on genealogy slow before it delves deeper into rural social issues, highlighting Jewett's skill as a local-color writer capturing isolation, character, and quiet humor in a fading seaport town, often compared to her masterpiece, The Country of the Pointed Firs. ; 8vo 8" - 9" tall; 270 pages.
