Diane of the Green Van is a novel by Leona Dalrymple, first published in 1914. The story follows Diane Westfall, a young woman who lives on the remote island of Greenmantle in the Chesapeake Bay. Despite her isolated upbringing, Diane is intelligent, independent, and fiercely loyal to her family and friends. When a wealthy businessman named Richard Kendricks comes to the island, Diane is immediately drawn to him, but she soon realizes that he is not what he seems. As their relationship develops, Diane must navigate the complex social dynamics of the island and confront the secrets that Richard is hiding. The novel explores themes of love, class, and morality, and is noted for its vivid descriptions of the Chesapeake Bay and its surrounding landscape.1914. The novel begins: Spring was stealing lightly over the Connecticut hills, a shy, tender thing of delicate green winging its way with witch-rod over the wooded ridges and the sylvan paths of Diane Westfall�������s farm. And with the spring had come a great hammering by the sheepfold and the stables where a smiling horde of metropolitan workmen, sheltered by night in the rambling old farmhouse, built an ingenious house upon wheels and flirted with housemaids.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
