Enjoy this classic work today. These selected paragraphs distill the contents and give you a quick look inside Anne:

The rough walls and beams of the chapel were decorated with fine spray-like lines of evergreen, all pointing toward the chancel; there was not a solid spot upon which the eye could rest, no upright branches in the corners, no massed bunches over the windows, no stars of Bethlehem, anchors, or nondescript Greek letters; the whole chapel was simply outlined in light feathery lines of green, which reached the chancel, entered it, played about its walls, and finally came together under the one massive wreath whose even circle and thick foliage held them all firmly in place, and ended their wanderings in a restful quiet strength.

...They followed her, hopping along together, with arms interlinked, while her candle shed a light on the bare walls and floors of the rooms through which they passed, a series of little apartments, empty and desolate, at the end of which was the kitchen, inhabited in the daytime by an Irishwoman, a soldiers wife, who came in the morning before breakfast, and went home at dusk, the only servant William Douglass fast-thinning purse could afford.

...Superseded, he then attended nominally to the highways; but as the military authorities had for years done all that was to be done on the smooth roads, three in number, including the steep fort hill, the position was a sinecure, and the superintendent took long walks across the island, studying the flora of the Northern woods, watching the birds, noticing the clouds and the winds, staying out late to experiment with the flash of the two light-houses from their different distances, and then coming home to his lonely house, where the baby Anne was tenderly cared for by Miss Lois Hinsdale, who superintended the nurse all day, watched her charge to bed, and then came over early in the morning before she woke.

...But what was not expected was the presence there of Miss Lois Hinsdale, sitting severely rigid in the first pew, accompanied by the doctors child-a healthy, blue-eyed little girl, who kissed her new mamma obediently, and thought her very sweet and pretty-a belief which remained with her always, the careless, indolent, easy-tempered, beautiful young second wife having died when her step-daughter was eleven years old, leaving four little ones, who, according to a common freak of nature, were more Indian than their mother.

...By the careful attention of Anne he was present in the fort chapel every Sunday morning, and, once there, he played the organ with delight, and brought exquisite harmonies from its little pipes; but Anne stood there beside him all the time, found the places, and kept him down to the work, borrowing his watch beforehand in order to touch him when the voluntary was too long, or the chords between the hymn verses too beautiful and intricate.

Judgment Epithetical Books Anne - The Original Classic Edition

An 1880 soap opera! We have orphans, unrequited love, war, heroism, love triangles (emphasis on the plural), grumpy old ladies, murder, pseudonyms, and deception in love. (Not to mention a harpist randomly showing up in the woods with his monkey.)I would have liked this book better if Anne had married the right guy in the end. I didn't particularly like any of the candidates, but especially detested the one she ended up with.I read this book because part of it takes place on Mackinac Island,

Loved this - loved reading a book that was older than 100 years old - and hearing the author's perspective of American life at that time. She is a wonderful author - very descriptive and also easy to read.

I enjoyed this book, especially its picture of life on the Great Lakes in the second half of the 19th century, but on the whole I was somewhat disappointed by it. It did not seem as well written as other books I've read by Woolson because a great deal of it seemed very contrived and formulaic, even for the period. Woolson can be a rewarding read, but I wouldn't start here!

On the whole, I enjoyed this book. It's an American romance, the author provides charming backstories for various secondary characters, the heroine is intelligent and caring. I'll probably reread it sometime. A couple issues. One is the casual racism which is pretty normal, I suppose, for the era, but in a couple of places becomes offensive enough to put me off the story. I won't describe it, it's too depressing. The other issue is that about 3/4 of the way through the book, it switches from

This book caught my attention because the protagonist, Anne Douglas, grew up on Mackinac Island. The story began on the island in around 1860, and it was fascinating to read what life on the island then was like. Once Anne left the island the plot took some very wild turns (there were proposals and murder and betrayal- one scene was a literal cliffhanger) but I didn't enjoy it quite as much. I would have preferred if Anne had married a different suitor than she did, but overall, quite an

In the end, I thought this book nearly as satisfying as Jane Eyre. It is a long book, densely, wonderfully written. Thanks to Com Toibin and his book on Henry James, I was introduced to Woolson, who will give me many hours of reading pleasure. The main character is a young woman in the wilds of Michigan. Due to her poverty, she must go East to receive an education. There are a couple love stories, and what I was as a deep betrayal by her sister, but all ends well for our dear Anne, whose

A year ago I read a collection of Constance Fenimore Woolsons short stories and, for the most part enjoyed the stories. I cant really say the same about this novel. I discovered Constance Fenimore Woolson and the book Anne through its connection with Mackinac Island. Every few years we spend a week at a relatives home on the island. Wanting to know more about the history of the island we all love so much I started digging around and discovered Constance Fenimore Woolson. Part of her first novel,
