Publisher's Synopsis

That Lass O������� Lowrie�������s is a novel written by Frances Hodgson Burnett and published in 1896. The story takes place in a small mining town in Lancashire, England in the mid-19th century. The central character is a young girl named Janey, who lives with her alcoholic father and dreams of escaping her poverty-stricken life. Janey�������s life changes when she meets a wealthy young man named Sir John, who is visiting the town to inspect the mines. Sir John is immediately drawn to Janey�������s beauty and innocence, and he offers to help her improve her situation. Janey is hesitant at first, but eventually accepts Sir John�������s offer and becomes his prot�����g�����. As Janey�������s life improves, she finds herself caught between two worlds ������� the world of the wealthy and the world of the working class. She struggles to reconcile her newfound status with her roots, and she must decide where her true loyalties lie. That Lass O������� Lowrie�������s is a poignant tale of social class, love, and self-discovery. Burnett�������s vivid descriptions of life in a mining town and her nuanced portrayal of Janey�������s character make this novel a timeless classic.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
