"I re-read these books every year, marveling at how a world so quaint - shirtwaists! Pompadours! Merry Widow hats! - can feature a heroine who is undeniably modern." - Laura Lippman
"There are three authors whose body of work I have reread more than once over my adult life: Charles Dickens, Jane Austen and Maud Hart Lovelace." - Anna Quindlen

Often considered Maud Hart Lovelace's best novel, Emily of Deep Valley is now back in print. This gorgeous volume includes a new foreword by acclaimed young adult author Mitali Perkins, and compelling historical material about the real people who inspired Lovelace's beloved characters.
