About this ebook

Complete and unabridged, with 49 full-page plates by Winslow Homer, George Inness and Albert Bierstadt. Katy and Clover are sent to a boarding school run on rules that forbid talking to the boys' college across the road, and organise a society for the suppression of unlady-like behaviour that is mostly an excuse for a feast.
