''A White Hand: A Story Of Noblesse Oblige'' is a novel written by Ella Farman Pratt and published in 1875. The story revolves around the life of a young girl named Edna, who is born into a wealthy and privileged family. Edna’s life is filled with luxury and comfort, but she is also burdened by the expectations of her social status and the obligation to help those less fortunate than herself.As Edna grows up, she becomes increasingly aware of the poverty and suffering of the people around her, and she feels compelled to do something to help them. With the help of her mother and a kind-hearted doctor, Edna sets out to improve the lives of the poor and needy in her community.Along the way, Edna faces many challenges and obstacles, including the disapproval of her peers and the resistance of those who are resistant to change. However, she remains determined to make a difference and to live up to the ideals of noblesse oblige, the belief that those who are privileged have a duty to help those who are less fortunate.Through her struggles and triumphs, Edna learns the true meaning of compassion, sacrifice, and the importance of using one’s privilege to make a positive impact on the world. ''A White Hand: A Story Of Noblesse Oblige'' is a timeless tale of social responsibility, empathy, and the power of one person to make a difference.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
