The Limner's Daughter
by Mary Stetson Clarke"If I'm capable of supporting us all by spinning, I'm capable enough to make this decision!" Amity Lyte was sixteen, and for months she had worked in a sail factory to earn a living for herself, her injured father-- at one time a successful portrait painter, called in those days a limner--and her six- year-old brother. Now, when a letter dated September 1, 1805, had come from an unknown great-aunt offering a home to all three of them, Amity rebelled against her father's refusal to accept. The determined spirit that had carried her through a long period of difficulty and exhaustion won the day, and the Lyte family set out from Boston to Woburn, Massachusetts, on the newly constructed Middlesex Canal. Amity was puzzled by a number of things: Why had her father never spoken of his Aunt Keziah? Why was he so unwilling to go back to his old home in Woburn? Why had he left it in the first place? Her perplexity increased upon finding Aunt Keziah's front door locked and overgrown with ivy; and discovering within a few days that the people of Woburn were not just unfriendly, but downright hostile to the Lyte family. The answers to her questionings came gradually during a strange, interesting, and rewarding year, while she was finding herself capable of organizing the means of support for an even larger family than before. Amity's story is interwoven with fascinating history: the persistence of high feeling against "Tories" thirty years after the Revolutionary War, the building of inland waterways in New England, and the origin and spreading popularity of the famous Baldwin apple. And through it all runs the bright thread of a sound, satisfying friendship that develops into the love of a lifetime for two fine young people. Mary Stetson Clarke, a devoted and imaginative researcher into the background of her stories, has written in The Limner's Daughter a novel of genuine stature and absorbing interest.
