The Widow and Her Daughter is a novel written by Susan Bogert Warner and published in 1864. The story revolves around a widow named Mrs. Lorn, who lives with her daughter, Gertrude, in a small village. Mrs. Lorn is a kind and loving mother, but she is also very protective of Gertrude. She wants her daughter to marry well and live a comfortable life, but Gertrude has her own ideas about what she wants from life.When a wealthy young man named Mr. Brandon comes to the village, Mrs. Lorn sees him as the perfect match for Gertrude. However, Gertrude is not interested in Mr. Brandon and instead falls in love with a poor but honest young man named Frank. Mrs. Lorn is horrified by this and tries to break up their relationship, but Gertrude is determined to follow her heart.As the story unfolds, Mrs. Lorn's past is revealed, and it becomes clear that her overprotectiveness stems from a tragic event in her own life. Through their struggles, Mrs. Lorn and Gertrude learn to understand and appreciate each other, and the importance of following one's own path in life.The Widow and Her Daughter is a heartwarming tale of love, family, and the power of forgiveness. It explores themes of class, gender, and societal expectations, and offers a glimpse into the lives of women in the mid-19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
