About this book

A tale of a disputed inheritance, hidden identity, and the collision of Southern American life with the wider world, told with the warmth, moral feeling, and gift for character that made Frances Hodgson Burnett one of the most beloved authors of her age. Beyond her famous children's books, Burnett wrote absorbing fiction for adults, and here she weaves romance, family secrets, and questions of honor into an engaging story. Rich in sentiment and human interest, the novel showcases her storytelling range. For readers who know only The Secret Garden and Little Lord Fauntleroy, In Connection with the De Willoughby Claim reveals another side of a versatile and warm-hearted writer.
