At the beginning of the story, Virginia Hunter, a bright, breezy,frank-hearted "girl of the Golden West," comes out of the Big Horncountry of Wyoming to the old Bay State. Then "things begin," whenVirginia,--who feels the joyous, exhilarating call of the Big Hornwilderness and the outdoor life,--attempts to become acclimated andadopt good old New England "ways."
Few stories reveal a more attractive heroine, and the joyous spirit ofyouth and its happy adventures give the story an unusual charm.
"The book has natural characters, fresh incidents, and a generalatmosphere of sincerity and wholesome understanding of girl nature.Virginia may well become as popular as 'Miss Billy' or irresistibleAnne."--_New York Sun_.
