The book follows the lives of several characters in the town, including the wealthy and influential Duxberry family, as well as the poorer residents.The central character of the story is a young woman named Mary Duxberry, who is the daughter of the town's wealthiest family. Mary is a kind and generous person who is loved by all, but she is also struggling with her own personal demons. She is torn between her duty to her family and her desire to help those less fortunate.As the story unfolds, Mary becomes increasingly involved in the lives of the town's poorer residents, and she begins to question the values and beliefs of her own family. Along the way, she falls in love with a young man who shares her passion for social justice, but their relationship is threatened by the differences in their social status.Duxberry Doings: A New England Story is a compelling tale of love, loyalty, and social justice set against the backdrop of a small New England town in the late 19th century.
