About this book
On a country estate in New York, Alida grows up amid the rural pleasures valued by her father. Her story moves from village schooling to education in the city, then into a world of rival attachments and uncertain reports. In one passage, Theodore receives a letter announcing that Alida will soon marry Bonville, and his distress turns on how he has understood her earlier kindness.
Amelia Stratton Comfield combines this courtship narrative with accounts of conflict between the United States and Great Britain, descriptions of New York, and travel through the Hudson valley toward Niagara. The contents also include poems on friendship, prayer, and other subjects.
