""A Cathedral Courtship And Penelope's English Experiences"" is a book written by Kate Douglas Smith Wiggin and published in 1893. The book is a collection of two novellas, ""A Cathedral Courtship"" and ""Penelope's English Experiences"". In ""A Cathedral Courtship"", the protagonist, Helen, travels to England with her friend, Mrs. Brown, to visit various cathedrals. Along the way, she meets a charming and handsome clergyman named Mr. Calthrop, and the two embark on a courtship that is filled with humorous misunderstandings and miscommunications.In ""Penelope's English Experiences"", the titular character, Penelope, travels to England to live with her aunt and uncle. She experiences various cultural differences and navigates the social expectations of English society. The novella is a humorous and lighthearted look at the clash of American and English cultures.Overall, ""A Cathedral Courtship And Penelope's English Experiences"" is a charming and entertaining book that offers a glimpse into the social mores and customs of late 19th-century England.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
