A Bachelor Maid is a novel written by Burton Harrison that tells the story of a young woman named Mary Hamilton, who is determined to live her life on her own terms. Mary is a strong-willed and independent woman who rejects the traditional roles assigned to women in society. She refuses to marry and become a housewife, instead choosing to pursue a career as a journalist. The novel is set in New York City in the late 19th century and explores the social and cultural norms of the time. Mary's decision to remain single and pursue a career is met with disapproval from her family and society at large. Despite this, she remains steadfast in her beliefs and continues to work towards her goals. As Mary navigates her career and personal life, she meets a number of interesting characters, including a wealthy businessman named John Dudley. The two form a close friendship, but Mary is hesitant to pursue a romantic relationship with him due to her commitment to remaining single. Throughout the novel, Mary faces a number of challenges and obstacles as she tries to carve out a place for herself in a world that is not always welcoming to women who refuse to conform to traditional gender roles. The story ultimately serves as a powerful commentary on the limitations placed on women during this time period and the importance of fighting for one's own agency and independence.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
