Summary
When the war of 1812 ends, Mary O'Shea moves to England to be with her sister but finds her new environment rather difficult, yet after being befriended by Lord James Lindsay, she begins to feel more comfortable and soon must make decisions that could effect the rest of her life. Reprint. SLJ.
Amazon.com description: Product Description:

The war of 1812 is over, and 16-year-old Mary O'Shea is leaving her home on the remote island of Mackinac to visit her married sister, Angelique, in England. When she arrives, the spunky American girl horrifies her sister's stuffy British in-laws with her independent ways--especially when she meets Lord James Lindsay. James shows Mary his world--and soon he invites her to share it with him. And now Mary finds herself facing the most difficult decision of her life....

With masterful storytelling, accurate historical detail, and an ever-appealing protagonist, critically acclaimed author Gloria Whelan has written a satisfying sequel to her 1996 Great Lakes Book Award winner Once on This Island.
