• Mrs. Turnbull turns from the problems of a fashionable city parish to the drama, humor, pathos, and adventure in the life of the minister of a village church of fifty years ago (starting story in 1881). This is the story of a wonderful family, short on cash but rich in everything else. It is the story of a full and happy marriage, and of what happens when a very wealthy young man falls in love with the minister's daughter. But most of all this is David's story, that of a man whose gifts and quiet ambition made him long for larger opportunities; but who learne that size is not a matter of place but of the manner of living.
