White Flag

A girl from a wealthy family. A boy from the wrong side of the tracks. Mahala and Jason's love is star-crossed from the beginning - not helped by the petty prejudices of people in small-town USA. In this twisting, turning melodrama, Gene Stratton-Porter throws everything into the story as the would-be lovers yearn to be together. Bigamy, adultery, typhoid fever, a riot, insanity - you name it!This is a book with a surprise on every page: but the biggest shock is reserved for the end. Will Mahala and Jason's love triumph?This is perfect reading for fans of Elizabeth Gaskell's 'North and South' and the works of George Eliot.
