Publisher's summary

Elsie Hathaway has it all: beauty, brains, and a strong work ethic. Taken in by her aunt's loving family after her mother's death, Elsie has had every advantage and earned every honor her school bestows. Her older brothers and her father remained in the family home and over the years their visits to each other were sporadic. But one day she drops by unannounced and discovers that this is the place where she is needed most.

The house is a mess, the men are not eating well and her brothers work at dead-end jobs with no plans for the future. While Elsie tirelessly attempts to set things to right, the listener gets a fascinating glimpse into life in the 1920s: how people decorated their homes; the kinds of food they prepared; what was required to get into college; the social hierarchies of the time.

Elsie's aunt feels she is ruining her life by moving back to a poorer area. But her selfless act has its own rewards ...

Delightful

I love Grace Livingston Hill and loved listening to this book on Audible. The narrator was very good at distinguishing the different characters and it was throughly enjoyable.

Delightful!

This was a wonderful and sweet history lesson and peak into the mid-twenties; the mid 1920’s. I LOVE the fur blankets to keep his passengers warm, in his car.

Another Great Grace Livingston Hill Book Brought to Life

Anne Hancock brings life to this inspiring story from the 1920’s. Grace Livingston Hill wrote about the challenges a young woman faces as she returns to her father’s home after living a carefree life with relatives.

Beautiful Story!

Anne Hancock once again does a superb job of narrating an Grace Livingston Hill book. I love the sacrifices Elsie joyfully made for her family and how they, especially the brothers, showed their appreciation for her sacrifices.
