Barbara in
This 1905 young adult romance is a delightfully sweet book. Young Barbara Britton is given the chance to go to
Barbara does quite a bit of touring with Mlle. Terese and manages to have quite a few more adventures…not the least one-meeting a young American, Denys, while out bike riding. I especially enjoyed how Barbara’s liking him began with simply being able to speak English to him! It turns out that Denys has been raised by his uncle, Mr. Morton-an old beau of maiden Aunt Anne’s…can you guess where this is going?
Delightfully read by Sibella Dentona, this charming book is available for download as a free audio-book here and as a free e-book in pdf. or kindle format here. The 1915 paper edition had these lovely illustrations by Frank Adams.(The original 1905 edition had illustrations by E. Heatly.)
