A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

Margaret Benson searly childhood was spent in a small town in the western part of New York State. Her expressive dark eyes and rare beauty were her sole heritage from her mother, who was the daughter of a distinguished Kentucky family. From her father, of whom less could be said, she inherited the traits that were ultimately to dominate her character and disposition. Shortly after the death of her mother, when Margaret was fourteen years old, she was taken to New York City and placed in charge of a woman who conducted a lodging house on the East Side, where she attended public school. She saw but little of her father, who came to see her at imcertain intervals, and she knew nothing of his business or financial resources, except that her spending money was very meagre, and the amount allowed for her board and clothes only covered the barest necessaries. Though only fourteen years of age her slender, prematurely developed stature and the matureness of her features gave her the appearance of seventeen. There being no other children at her boarding place she found the atmosphere ill suited to her age and temperament.
