This antiquarian volume contains the final book in Susan Coolidge's famous heart-warming 'Katy' series. Lionel Young and Imogen, his sister, embark on a trip to the idyllic but remote High Valley area of Colorado, leaving their home in Devonshire, England far behind them. Lionel intends to assume the share in Geoffrey Templestowe’s cattle enterprise. Imogen, due to her prejudices against America and the American lifestyle, struggles to come to terms with life in the USA. This text is a veritable must-read for fans of the 'Katy' series, and is not to be missed by collectors of Coolidge's lovely work. Sarah Chauncey Woolsey (1835 – 1905) was an American children's author. We are republishing this vintage book now in an affordable, modern edition complete with a specially commissioned new biography of the author.
