About This Item
Boston: Houghton Mifflin, 1915. First Printing. Hardcover. Near fine/good. Publisher's cloth in dust jacket, book near fine with slightest wear and toning, jacket good, complete but with some rubbing and edgewear, especially visible to spine ends; verso of jacket had some old tanned tape but we were able to remove all of it, leaving only scant evidence that it was ever there. K. Le Moyne is a famous surgeon. So why would he give it all up to move to a small town where Sidney Page, "a strong, beautiful girl," is training hard to become a nurse?
Synopsis
The Street stretched away north and south in two lines of ancient houses that seemed to meet in the distance. The man found it infinitely inviting. It had the well-worn look of an old coat, shabby but comfortable. The thought of coming there to live pleased him. Surely here would be peace - long evenings in which to read, quiet nights in which to sleep and forget. It was an impression of home, really, that it gave.
