Maude Baxter is a novel written by Chauncey Crafts Hotchkiss and published in 1911. The story is set in the early 1900s and follows the life of Maude Baxter, a young woman from a wealthy family in New York City. Maude is a beautiful and intelligent woman who is determined to make a name for herself in the world.The novel begins with Maude's childhood and her relationship with her parents. Her father is a successful businessman who is often absent from the family, leaving Maude to be raised by her mother. Maude's mother is a socialite who is more concerned with her own image than her daughter's well-being.As Maude grows older, she becomes increasingly independent and sets her sights on a career in journalism. She moves to Chicago to work for a newspaper and quickly rises through the ranks, becoming a respected journalist and editor.Along the way, Maude faces many challenges, including sexism in the workplace and a difficult romantic relationship. But she perseveres and ultimately achieves her goals.Maude Baxter is a compelling story of a woman's journey to find her place in the world. It explores themes of gender roles, ambition, and the pursuit of happiness. Hotchkiss's writing is engaging and vivid, transporting readers to the world of early 20th century New York and Chicago.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
