Set against the backdrop of the late 19th century, this coming-of-age novel follows the spirited fourteen-year-old Barbara as she grapples with the constraints imposed by her strict aunt in Second Westings. As she embarks on a daring journey towards freedom, readers will encounter themes of independence and the quest for identity. Ideal for students and historians alike, this tale captures the essence of youthful defiance and the longing for adventure, making it a poignant exploration of the unalienable rights to self-expression and personal growth.
