A Woman’s Word: And How She Kept It is a novel written by Virginia Frances Townsend in 1878. The story follows the life of a young woman named Grace Archer who, after being orphaned at a young age, is sent to live with her wealthy aunt and uncle. Grace is promised a large inheritance upon her marriage, but when she falls in love with a poor artist, she must decide between her love for him and her financial security. The novel explores themes of love, loyalty, and the role of women in society during the late 19th century. It also provides a glimpse into the cultural and social norms of the time period, particularly regarding the expectations placed on women in regards to marriage and financial stability. Townsend’s writing style is descriptive and engaging, drawing the reader into the world of Grace and the challenges she faces. The novel was well-received upon its publication and is considered a classic work of 19th-century literature. Overall, A Woman’s Word: And How She Kept It is a compelling tale of love and sacrifice that still resonates with readers today.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
