Description:
Hitty, a doll carved from mountain ash in the nineteenth century writes the story of her eventful life from the security of an antique-shop window. Her career, begun in a quiet Maine village, is crowded with adventures, and she gives lively doll's-eye glimpses of the widely differing places and people that she encounters during her hundred years, and of the manners and modes of her times.
