About This Book

A spirited young girl raised on a coastal ranch spends her days with an aging companion and their horses, wandering beaches and cañons and learning through small domestic adventures. Episodes move between playful mischief and quiet care, showing her curiosity about the natural world and the patient guardianship of the older man. The narrative unfolds as a series of episodic vignettes that emphasize animal behavior, everyday tasks, and the affectionate, sometimes prickly, bonds between generations, using lively local detail and gentle humor rather than a single dramatic arc.

THE CAPTAIN OF THE KITTIEWINK.

A Cape Ann Story for Boys. By Herbert D. Ward, author of “The New Senior at Andover,” and other Stories. With nine Illustrations. Square 16mo. Cloth. Price, $1.25.

THE WRECK OF THE “KITTIEWINK.”

As Capt. “Phineas Scrod,” who had charge of the Kittiewink, would have expressed it, “That there craft wasn’t no teaspoon.” A capital good boat she proved to be, and a prime story has Mr. Ward written, giving the adventures of Hall, Algernon, and last but not least, of Trot, the terrier. “The Captain of the Kittiewink” is just the kind of story to give boys the yachting madness.—New York Times.
