AbstractHistoryArchive Description

Slight village romance, unclear whether in England or the US. Rose Danglar, the Belle of Newtown, is broken-hearted when the local doctor jilts her for a richer woman but is consoled some time later by another neighbouring doctor. And her first suitor, disappointed in his wife's wealth, becomes a dissipated drunkard. (PB)
