Instead Of The Thorn - 9781539545996

Originally published in 1916. Instead of the Thorn is one of the much-talked-of books in the early twentieth century. The story is of a Chicago girl brought up in luxury, whose father is ruined under circumstances that seem to her to involve his business associate. The fact that this young man is in love with the girl greatly complicates the situation, and results in a dramatic and absorbing narrative. How the girl is finally persuaded to go to New England for rest, how the simple, quiet village life restores her poise and happiness, is told in Mrs. Burnham's inimitable way. Her many admirers will find in her new story as much pleasure and inspiration as in anything she has ever written.
