""The Lady of the Aroostook"" is a novel written by William Dean Howells. The story follows the journey of a young woman named Lydia Blood who is traveling from Boston to Quebec. Lydia is a reserved and proper woman who is trying to find her place in the world. Along the way, she meets a young man named James B. Sewall who is traveling to Quebec on business. The two become friends and soon find themselves falling in love. However, Lydia's strict upbringing and societal expectations make it difficult for her to pursue a relationship with James. The novel explores themes of class, gender roles, and societal expectations in the late 19th century. Through Lydia's journey, the reader is taken on a thought-provoking exploration of the challenges faced by women during this time period. The Lady of the Aroostook is a beautifully written novel that offers a unique perspective on the struggles of women in the late 19th century.""I don't go round criticisn' my superior officers, and I don't say anything about the responsibility the old man took. The old man's all right, accordin' to his lights; he ain't had a tiger in the family. But if that chap was to fall overboard,--well, I don't know how long it would take to lower a boat, if I was to listen to my conscience. There ain't really any help for him. He's begun too young ever to get over it. He won't be ashore at Try-East an hour before he's drunk.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
