The Place Beyond the Winds
Harriet T. Comstock
Excerpt from The Place Beyond the WindsDreamer's Rock and One Tree Island, Far Hill Place and Lonely Farm, safely sheltered they lie, and from them, in obedience to the Lure of the States, comes now and again an adventurous soul to make his way, if so he may; and never was there a braver, truer wanderer than Priscilla of Lonely Farm. Equipped with a great faith, a straight method of thinking, and an ideal that never faded from her sight, she, by the help of the Poor Property Man, found her place and her work awaiting her. Love, she found, too love that had to be tested by a man's sense of honour and a woman's deter mination, but it survived and found its fulfilment before the Shrine in the woods beyond Lonely Farm, where, as a little child, Priscilla had set up her Strange God and given homage to it.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
