Summary

Gene Stratton-Porter (1863 - 1924) was a naturalist, photographer and author.

This novel, set in 1920s California, tells the tale of Linda Strong who shares her father’s love for the beauty of nature in California. When her parents suddenly pass away, she is left with her sister Eileen, a huge house, and much wealth. Eileen goes on a spending spree, dissipating the inheritance at an alarming pace. When Linda eventually finds out, she meets with their banker and finds a way to earn money in a manner that she enjoys. The narrative includes romance, murder, and delightful descriptions of the state’s fauna and flora.

The Reader's Voice

I read this book several times over the years. It's dated, and expressed views unacceptable today, I always enjoyed the story, in spite of strongly disagreeing with the anti Japanese-American views. I was looking forward to listening but didn't make it past the first paragraph before giving up. The reader's voice was about as enthralling as fingernails on a chalkboard.
