Wanderfoot (The Dream Ship‪)‬

First published in 1922 and also issued as The Dream Ship, Wanderfoot is Cynthia Stockley's romance of restless hearts—a tale in which the call of far places proves stronger than any fence, and love must contend with the open road. Stockley, one of the most popular storytellers of her generation, writes with vivid, unhurried warmth of the farms, mines, and wide horizons of southern Africa, peopling them with characters of uncommon spirit. This edition presents the COMPLETE, UNABRIDGED original text exactly as it first appeared, together with a new introduction situating the novel in its historical moment and reader's notes illuminating the places, phrases, and customs of a vanished world. Written a century ago, in an era whose attitudes it faithfully records, Wanderfoot remains a stirring story of longing, adventure, and the dreams that carry us beyond our own doorstep.
