The Heart's Highway is a novel written by Mary E. Wilkins Freeman. The story revolves around a young girl named Marcia who is sent to live with her aunt and uncle in a small town in New England. Marcia is a free-spirited and independent girl who struggles to fit in with the strict and traditional ways of her new community. She finds solace in her friendship with a young man named David, who shares her love of nature and adventure. However, their relationship is complicated by the disapproval of their families and the social norms of the time. As Marcia navigates the challenges of growing up and finding her place in the world, she must also confront the limitations imposed on her by society. The Heart's Highway is a poignant and insightful novel that explores themes of love, freedom, and individuality in the face of societal expectations.I have always observed with wonder and amusement and a tender gladness the faculty with which young creatures, and particularly young girls, can throw off their minds for the time being the weight of cares and anxieties and bring all of themselves to bear upon those exercises of body or mind, to no particular end of serious gain, which we call play and frivolity. It may be that faculty is so ordained by a wise Providence.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
