The High Road is a novel written by Emma Sarah Allen and first published in 1917. The story follows the life of a young woman named Marjorie Ware, who is forced to leave her home in the city and move to a small rural town after her father's death. Marjorie struggles to adjust to her new surroundings and the expectations of the townspeople, who view her as an outsider.As Marjorie begins to settle into her new life, she meets and falls in love with a local farmer named David Wells. However, their relationship is complicated by the fact that David is engaged to another woman. Marjorie must navigate her feelings for David while also dealing with the disapproval of the townspeople and the challenges of rural life.Throughout the novel, Marjorie learns the importance of staying true to herself and following her own path, even when it is difficult. She also discovers the value of community and the power of forgiveness.Overall, The High Road is a heartwarming and inspiring story of love, loss, and self-discovery set against the backdrop of rural America in the early 20th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
