This is the final volume in the trilogy following the smart, stylish,
divorced and independent businesswoman Emma McChesney in her
career from stenographer, then drummer (traveling salesman) to
owner of her own company. (The first was Roast Beef, Medium and
the second Personality Plus both in the Librivox catalog). Edna
Ferber first gained success with these stories and later went on to
write Show Boat, Giant and other well known books. First published
in 1915, Emma's son, Jock, has moved to Chicago with his new wife.
Emma decides to sell in South America and proves she has not lost
her magic touch. Emma gets involved in romance, saving a business
and many other things. Emma symbolizes the ideal woman at the
dawn of the twentieth century: sharp, capable, charming, and
progressive. (Summary by Phil Chenevert)
