Summary
The Oakes estate, once the showplace of the Connecticut Valley, is in 1890 a starved and barren land. All that remains of the proud Oakes line is Judith, a spinster. Then Ondia Olszak comes to work, a rugged full-blooded Pole… with a peasant’s natural love for the land, and together they struggle to save the farm. 1974, c1931.
