Item description from seller

KEYES, Frances Parkinson Warmly inscribed very sincerely yours [202] pp. Dodd, Mead & Co. 1947 8 1/4" x 5 3/4" Jacket drawing by Addison Burbank Keyes' famous - and only juvenile novel - in which a young girl on the brink of womanhood, grows up in the lush splendor of romantic New Orleans. This is the story of Marie Louise, a delightful young girl whose family played a prominent part in the history of Louisiana and who herself lived on the Esplanade when this was the most fashionable avenue in New Orleans. It is also the story of an enchanting city and a gracious way of life whose savor Mrs. Keyes has skillfully captured and most happily preserved forever. Frances Parkinson Keyes (July 21, 1885- July 3, 1970) was an American author who wrote about her life as the wife of a U.S. Senator and novels set in New England, Louisiana, and Europe. A convert to Roman Catholicism, her later works frequently featured Catholic themes and beliefs.
