A Daughter of Music is a novel written by Gertrude Colmore and published in 1894. The story revolves around a young woman named Ruth who is passionate about music and aspires to become a famous singer. However, her dreams are hindered by the societal norms of the time which dictate that women should not pursue careers in the arts.Ruth's father, a wealthy businessman, disapproves of her musical aspirations and wants her to marry a wealthy man instead. Despite his objections, Ruth continues to pursue her passion and eventually meets a young composer named Maurice who shares her love for music.As Ruth's relationship with Maurice develops, she is faced with a difficult decision between following her heart and pursuing her dreams or succumbing to societal pressure and marrying for financial security.The novel explores themes of love, ambition, and the struggle for women's independence in a male-dominated society. It also touches upon the issues of class and wealth as well as the challenges faced by artists in pursuing their creative passions.Overall, A Daughter of Music is a compelling and thought-provoking story that offers a glimpse into the struggles and aspirations of women in the late 19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
