Mature subjects are addressed, so that younger children may not enjoy this story. When a mysterious stranger gives Nidworth first one magic wand, and then another, an adventure begins that changes his life and his family forever. Which wand will bring Nidworth happiness - a wand that produces riches? One that yields knowledge? Surely, Nidworth will be content having one of the wands! But as misfortune follows misfortune, his heart is as empty as his head is full. Will a third wand set things right? Follow Nidworth’s journey in this masterfully written vintage novel, as he transforms into a man of character who turns his little town upside down.Elizabeth Prentiss wrote over two dozen books including fiction, poetry, and hymns. Her husband, Reverend George Prentiss, wrote: Her pen moved always and only under a sense of duty. She held her talent as a gift from God, and consecrated it sacredly to the enforcement and diffusion of His truth.In Nidworth, first published in 1869, Mrs. Prentiss has skillfully woven into the story her own theory of a happy life. She wrote the book with intense delight, and its strange characters seemed to her, for a while, almost as real as if she had copied them from life. The original publishers (Roberts Brothers) pronounced Nidworth “a gem”. It certainly contains some of the author's brightest pictures of life and character.

After years of struggling to eke out a living in the city of Philadelphia, through all types of financial turmoil, Edmund Morris finally achieved his life-long dream of owning a farm in the country. During this era railroads were beginning to tie the country together, it was becoming possible for farmers to earn a living shipping fresh produce to distant cities within one day of harvest. This changed everything for the farmers, and Edmund knew he could make 10 acres enough to support his large family. His wife stood by his side and was essential to his success, and he is not remiss in giving her the credit she deserves. With wit and humor, and an abundance of thorough details, Morris describes his adventures while achieving his lifelong dream, and encourages folks to follow his example. He makes it clear that with hard work, intelligence and a willingness to change with the times, owning rural property can be both enjoyable and profitable.
