About this ebook

Valancy Stirling is twenty-nine, unmarried and bullied by a clan of relatives, and a doctor's letter tells her she has a year to live — so she says what she thinks, moves out, and proposes to the most disreputable man in the county.

One hundred plates by painters including Childe Hassam and Robert Henri follow Valancy through the light and weather of her rebellion, from terrace to snow.
