Catalogue synopsis
Project Gutenberg supplies this automated synopsis of the opening text:
"Janice Meredith: A Story of the American Revolution" by Paul Leicester Ford is a historical novel written in the early 20th century. The book is set during the American Revolution and focuses on the life of a young heroine named Janice Meredith as she navigates the challenges and romantic entanglements of her time. Throughout the narrative, the story will delve into her relationships with various characters, including her family, friends, and the more mysterious figures that the revolutionary setting brings into her life. The opening of the novel introduces Janice Meredith as a spirited and somewhat rebellious young girl who finds herself in a playful yet tumultuous situation while reading a forbidden romance novel with her friend, Tabitha. Their enjoyment is cut short by Janice's mother, leading to a humorous yet stern reprimand. As Janice grapples with her mother's expectations and her own youthful desires, her characterization begins to unfold. Meanwhile, the stage is set for deeper themes of love, identity, and the social upheaval brought on by the revolutionary war that will shape Janice's life and define her character throughout the remainder of the story. The initial slice of life from Janice's perspective hints at her spirited nature and sets the tone for a tale that weaves personal growth with the larger historical narrative of the American Revolution.
