The Daughter of Anderson Crow

The self-important town marshal Anderson Crow, of a sleepy Midwestern village, fancies himself a great detective, and comedy ensues as a foundling left on his doorstep grows up amid his bumbling investigations and small-town intrigues. McCutcheon blends gentle humor, mystery, and affectionate satire of provincial life into a warm, entertaining tale. Popular in its day, it captures the charm and foibles of turn-of-the-century American town life. Lighthearted and good-natured, The Daughter of Anderson Crow is an enjoyable comic novel from the best-selling author of Graustark and Brewster’s Millions.
