AbstractHistoryArchive Description

Father-daughter reunion set in England in the mid-1880s. A fisherman's son and talented artist discovers through a commission that his sweetheart, cared for by his parents since they rescued her from a storm as a baby, is the long-lost daughter of his patron. He brings them together when the painting is completed ... but her love remains true to him. Simple tale. (PB)
