Wonderful read in historical fiction about Katharine Prescott Wormely who at seventy seven years old decides to drive herself to her new home in the northeast United States. Along her drive, she recounts her life and her loves. She also makes a positive impact on all those she meets on her journey. Before reading this book, I had never heard of this lady. The author did a tremendous amount of research to bring Katharine to life and show her work as a nurse in the Civil War and later as a philanthropist.
Note--the author's last name--related to the creator of Central Park and much more. Thanks to NetGalley for the arc.
