I was fourteen, and it was my wedding day. My sister Helen came to my room, took my hand, and sat me down on the bed. She said "Maude, you've always been a good girl and done what I told you. Now, you're going to be a married woman, and he is the head of the house. Whatever he wants to do to you, you have to let him do it."

This is a great book. It was given to me by my mother after she read it.

Flying off the shelves on a RABCK adventure to Booklady331. Thanks for helping!

Thank you for sharing this book with me. I am not sure if I will read this one or not but for the time being I’ll keep it on my to be read shelf

What a sad life Maude had. I can't believe I would survive the amount of loss this woman endured. I found the book so sad that I had to remind myself that it is a true story.
