Publisher's Synopsis
The Courtship of Lizzie Andrews - Will You Write to Me? reveals an intimate chronicle of a young couple's romantic courtship that began in 1850. Lizzie Andrews is just 14 years old when she receives her first letter from Edward Jarvis Tenney. Both from prominent New England families, her suitor is a 16-year old Harvard scholar and her half-cousin! One hundred and fifty years after they were written, Edward's letters were discovered in a dusty attic. Will You Write to Me? includes Edward's first 18 letters, authentic and unedited. Lizzie's great, great granddaughter PJ Watters creates a vivid description of Lizzie's life and viewpoint based on historic events. This is the first book of their romantic correspondence, followed by Will You Marry Me? and Will You Wait For Me?
