One Fair Daughter: A Story (1909) is a novel written by Frederic Pierpont Ladd. The story revolves around the life of a young woman named Ruth, who is the only daughter of a wealthy businessman. Ruth is beautiful, intelligent, and well-educated, but she is also sheltered and naive. Her father is overprotective of her and wants her to marry a man who will continue his business legacy. However, Ruth falls in love with a young artist named Paul, who is not from the same social class as her. The novel explores the themes of love, social class, and family expectations. It shows the struggles of a young woman who wants to follow her heart but is torn between her love for Paul and her duty to her family. The story also delves into the complexities of relationships and the sacrifices that people make for the ones they love.Ladd's writing style is descriptive and engaging, and he creates vivid characters that readers can relate to. The novel is set in the early 1900s, and the author captures the essence of the time period through his descriptions of the social norms and customs of the era.
