194124493New York: D. Appleton-Century Company. Very Good. 1941. First Edition. Hardcover. no dust jacket good sound copy lightly shelfworn spine slightly turned spine cloth somewhat faded small red stain on front cover. Late novel her next-to-last published work I believe by this California author who I think of as the anti-John Steinbeck due to her previous book "Of Human Kindness" 1939 which was written as a rebuttal to "The Grapes of Wrath" and presented a sympathetic view of California's ranchers and fruit growers. Married to a California State Senator she herself was also active in Republican political circles. This book is a romantic/adventure novel about a spinsterish young librarian from New England who travels to Mexico with her frivolous aunt on a "study tour" sponsored by a business and professional women's organization and finds herself the object of amorous pursuit by a famous radio comedian an American doctor and a "dashing Mexican patriot." A contemporary review notes that "riots and kidnapping were some of the excitements that overtook the little librarian"; the same reviewer also complimented the author for her high opinion of the "natives and their mountain background." .
