Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Under My Own Roof
But why shouldn't I love my house? I have dreamed of it through twenty years of boarding, light housekeeping, furnished rooms, ?ats, and all other imaginable modes of existence in other people's houses.
Every wise woman buildeth her a house, saith the Preacher. This statement may have been true in his times, but, unfortunately, it is not so to-day. No doubt every woman, wise or otherwise, wishes to build a house, but in ninety nine cases out of a hundred she never gets be yond the desire. My discontented sisters, I feel like saying, whenever I see a homeless woman, you have a perfect right to a home of your own; yea, more, to a house of your own, and the only way to build one is just to build, as I did.
