AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'This little reverie by a Tasmanian author tells of a young woman who sat before the fire and dreamed of her future. 'It doesn't do for anyone with an imagination like yours to stare into the fire too long,' warned her aunt, going on to bed. But Adrienne had a problem to solve— which of three men she would marry. Her manner of solving this problem In a resort to dreams has poetry, beauty and I charm.'
