A Crooked Path by Mrs. Alexander Excerpt: "Do not fear for me, mother. I am tougher and more selfish than you are. It is time I worked for you. How feverish you are! Come up to your own room. You will see things differently when you have had a little sleep. If the worst comes, I will tell Ada that we must give up the house and go back to lodgings. We never had difficulties before we came here."

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book, a fascinating deep-dive into a tumultuous period of Victorian London society, tracks the intertwined lives of two young women connected by a single act of impulsive courage. Through the eyes of the rescuer, Katherine Liddell, and the rescued, Cecil Errington, the author captures the tension between the era's societal expectations and the quiet rebellion that often simmered beneath the surface. Paying meticulous attention to historical detail, the author paints a vivid picture of the challenges faced by women in a world dominated by men, and the lengths to which some went to defy limiting conventions. This book sheds light on the often-overlooked stories of women whose strength and independence enabled them to carve out a different path for themselves in a rapidly changing society.
