About This Book
> This story of a doctor's family begins before the First World War. Their daughter, Mildred, was awkward and shy, and 'only a girl' overshadowed by her boisterous brothers.
>On holiday in France, Mildred keeps Adam Burns company when he is recovering from the effects of a jellyfish sting, and their friendship develops. When they grow up, Mildred hopes that they might be married, but Adam falls in love with the beautiful Lady Anabel Hardcastle.
>This is a touching story of a young girl who is hampered by ignorance, and made to feel dull and stupid by her father and brothers. Even marriage brings disillusionment, but Mildred shows that she has surprising strength of character.
