Charlotte Mary Yonge's books provide an intimate picture of English aristocracy in the turn of the 20th century. There is a slight similarity to Jane Austin's novels due to both authoresses writing about the same level of society during the same period. An upper class families' many children are scattered to friends and relatives because the mother has gone to care for the father who is a highranking officer in the British army in India. The children, from teenagers to tots, are trying to adapt to their new households.
