Quin

Complete and unabridged, with 59 full-page plates by Winslow Homer, George Inness and Edward Lamson Henry. A wounded soldier comes home from the war to a household of women who have decided what his convalescence will look like, and finds his own way out of it. Alice Hegan Rice was best known for a book about a poor family in a Louisville shanty town, and wrote about kindness without ever going soft. This edition adds a gallery of 59 plates of painting, among them works by Edward Lamson Henry, Winslow Homer and Juliusz Kossak, plus one restored colour illustration.
