Publisher's Synopsis
...Mary Wilkins Freeman's book, "The Winning Lady," will recall to her readers many a pleasant hour among her former books. Here, as in those earlier stories, is the same richness of humor and kindly sentiment, of keen observation and exquisite description.
Old country scenes, ancient mansions, refined gentlefolk of the old school, quaint village characters, all live in her pages so vividly as to form types round which her readers concentrate their thought of such survivals of elder days as still exist among us.
Let us have more such stories from her gifted pen and her sympathetic heart!
-Friends' Intelligencer, Volume 67 [1910]
