About this ebook

The Blue Window is another of Temple Bailey's exquisite love stories, written in her unusual distinctive style. Hildegarde Carew, brought up in ignorance of the high social position of her father, from whom her mother is separated, spends her girlhood amid the hardships of a country farm. At her mother's death, she goes to live with her father, a tyrannical, selfish, but superficially charming person. Caught in the whirl of the life which surrounds hers, Hildegarde fights to retain her ideals. Her mother's spirit contends with the living influence of the father. This contention and masterful wooing of Hildegarde's country lover, Crispin, are the high points of this beautiful and highly realistic story.
