O ovoj e-knjizi
Silver Cross is the story of a church in England and the people inhabiting the surrounding Middle Forest and Montjoy. Morgen Fay and her crew of old woman Ailsa and young Anthony help to keep her house by Silver Cross in order. Excerpt: "Sometimes he who had been in the boat came again, walking, to her discreet door, in the shadow of the wall. But he only gained entry if he were somehow a friend of a friend. And all alike must be armiger, or at least not the least in the burgher world. And, logically, only those of these entered who could be friends and pay. Would you have a love for nothing? She had an answer always ready for that. "I must live!"
O autoru
Mary Johnston (1870–1936) was a prominent American novelist and women's rights advocate of the early 20th century. Born in Buchanan, Virginia, she was the daughter of an American Civil War veteran, and her genteel Southern upbringing infused her works with a distinct regionalism. Johnston wrote historical romances and novels that often centered on colonial and revolutionary themes, addressing issues of honor, loyalty, and societal norms. 'Silver Cross' is one such work, diving into the complexities of human behaviors and societal expectations within a carefully framed historical context. Although not as widely known today, her novels, such as 'To Have and to Hold' (1900) and 'Audrey' (1902), were bestsellers in their time, bringing her both commercial success and critical acclaim. Her writing is characterized by a vivid narrative style, with a particular focus on character development and historical accuracy. Johnston's activism for women's suffrage and her role in the early feminist movement also echoed in her novels, where she often portrayed strong female characters challenging the confines of their times. Her literary contributions have earned her a respected place in American literature, with her works continuing to be studied for their depiction of early American life and their progressive portrayal of women.
