Dr. Howell's Family is a novel written by Hannah Bradbury Goodwin. The book follows the story of a family headed by Dr. Howell, a respected physician in their small town. The family includes his wife, three daughters, and a son. The story is set in the late 19th century and explores the challenges and triumphs of family life during that time.The book delves into the individual personalities of each family member, their relationships with each other, and their struggles to navigate the societal norms of the time. Dr. Howell's wife, Sarah, is a devoted mother and wife, but also harbors a secret longing for a life beyond the confines of her home. Their eldest daughter, Mary, is a strong-willed young woman who dreams of becoming a doctor like her father, but faces opposition from society and her own family. The middle daughter, Emma, struggles to find her place in the world, while the youngest, Lucy, is a precocious child who longs for her father's attention.As the family faces various challenges, including financial difficulties, illness, and personal conflicts, they learn to rely on each other and the strength of their familial bonds. The book ultimately celebrates the power of family and the importance of love and support in overcoming life's obstacles.Overall, Dr. Howell's Family is a heartwarming and insightful novel that offers a glimpse into the joys and struggles of family life 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.
