With The Best Intentions: A Midsummer Episode is a novel written by Marion Harland and first published in 1890. The story is set in the late 19th century and follows the lives of a group of wealthy Americans who spend their summers in a luxurious resort town. The main character is a young woman named Marguerite, who is engaged to a prominent lawyer named Jack. However, Marguerite is unsure about her feelings for Jack and is tempted by the attention of a charming and wealthy newcomer to the town named Maurice. As the summer progresses, Marguerite must navigate her feelings for both men and the social expectations of her class. Along the way, she also becomes involved in the lives of her friends and neighbors, including a young couple whose marriage is on the rocks and an elderly woman who is struggling with illness. With The Best Intentions explores themes of love, loyalty, and social class, and offers a glimpse into the lives of the wealthy elite during the Gilded Age.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
