Title: The aristocrat
First published: 1968
Description: Secure in her Victorian mansion, in her Pennsylvania town, flying her flag in defense of principle and old-time decorum, Miss Alexandria Morley takes on and outclasses the mighty coal company (she's caught them cheating on taxes); civilizes her roughhewn young doctor (good character is no license for crudity); copes patiently (family obligations are sacred) with the poor old cousin who is a tidal wave of garrulous idiocy; stands firm against the poisonous cousin who is a knot of destructive envy; puts herself gently at the service of a sweet young cousin who cannot decide among her eligible beaux.--Publisher's description.
