Julia's Story
Julia's Story
Author: Ruth Elwin Harris
Desc: Four independent-minded sisters come of age in the early 1900s - and four interwoven novels tell their stories each through a different sister's eyes. The year is 1910 and the four Purcell sisters have only each other. Their mother has died leaving them orphans in a rambling country estate. But with the help of the Mackenzies - their guardian and his family whom the sisters come to love in very different ways - Sarah Frances Julia and Gwen find the courage to follow their own paths in a world that is rapidly changing. Avid readers and fans of historical-fiction classics will love these spirited heroines - named "the Little Women of our times" by the TIMES of London - and will be thoroughly absorbed by their intertwining tales full of feistiness creativity and young romance. The Dividing Sea (Book Three) is Julia's story. It tells of her eventful time as a volunteer nurse in France during the Great War and her ill-started love story with Geoffrey Mackenzie.
