Tabitha's House

Marian has known and loved it since she was a small child. Living higher up the steep lane that leads down into the bay, she and her sister often called on Tabitha on their way up from the beach.
After she finishes school she goes to London to study for a science degree and then to a job in western America where she stays many years, getting back to her beloved Cornwall whenever she can. The story describes the people she knows, her relationship with them, some joyful and rewarding, some painful and frustrating.
