Publisher's Synopsis

Miss Bagg's Secretary: A West Point Romance is a novel written by Clara Louise Burnham and originally published in 1892. The story revolves around the life of a young woman named Mary Bagg, who is the secretary of the superintendent of West Point Military Academy. Mary is a smart and capable woman who is highly respected by her boss and the cadets at the academy. As the story progresses, Mary finds herself caught in a love triangle between two cadets, Jack and Dick. Jack is a popular and charming cadet who has always had feelings for Mary, while Dick is a serious and hardworking cadet who also develops feelings for her. Mary must navigate her feelings for both men while also dealing with the challenges of her job and the strict rules and expectations of West Point. Throughout the novel, Burnham explores themes of love, duty, and honor, as well as the role of women in male-dominated fields. The book provides a fascinating glimpse into life at West Point in the late 19th century, and the challenges faced by women in professional settings during that time period. Overall, Miss Bagg's Secretary: A West Point Romance is a compelling and engaging novel that offers a unique perspective on love, duty, and the struggle for gender equality in the late 19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
