The Ollivant Orphans is a novel written by Inez Haynes Gillmore in 1915. The story revolves around the lives of two sisters, Peggy and Jean Ollivant, who are left orphaned after their father's death. The girls are sent to live with their Uncle John, a wealthy businessman who has little interest in raising children. The girls struggle to adjust to their new life and the strict rules of their uncle's household. However, they soon find solace in their love for animals, particularly horses. They become friends with a local stable boy, Joe, who helps them to care for the horses and teaches them how to ride. As the girls grow older, they become more independent and begin to challenge their uncle's authority. They also become involved in a local animal welfare campaign, fighting against the cruel treatment of horses in the city. The Ollivant Orphans is a heartwarming story about family, friendship, and the power of love and compassion. It highlights the importance of standing up for what is right and the impact that even small actions can have on the world around us.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
