King's Daughter

by Pansy (Isabella Macdonald Alden)

This book tells the story of Dell Bronson, a young woman raised in a refined Boston environment who is abruptly called home to Lewiston by her father, a coarse tavern owner. Struggling to reconcile her upbringing with the realities of her father's life, Dell dedicates herself to her faith and endeavors to influence her father, striving to lead him away from the world of alcohol and toward a more spiritual path. The novel explores themes of family, faith, and the struggles of living a morally upright life in a world of temptation and vice. It portrays the complexities of relationships, the challenges of reconciling different values, and the enduring power of hope and faith in the face of adversity.
