520			_a"The Heart's Highway: A Romance of Virginia in the Seventeenth Century" by Mary E. Wilkins is a historical novel set in the late 19th century. The book explores themes of romance and social dynamics through the experiences of its main characters, focusing on the young Mistress Mary Cavendish and her tutor, Harry Maria Wingfield, a man carrying the weight of his past disgrace as a convict. The story is steeped in the period's rich cultural and social contexts, particularly regarding class structures and race relations. At the start of the novel, we are introduced to the characters as they ride to church in Jamestown. Wingfield, despite his low standing as a convict, reflects on his deep-seated feelings for Mary, who is vibrant and beautiful. Their journey becomes a mix of appreciation for the Virginia landscape and a tension stemming from Wingfield's status, compounded by Mary's youthful impulsivity and fondness for the unpredictable, such as seeking out her family's ship post-voyage and her flouting of societal expectations. As they encounter sailors and delve into both personal and broader societal matters, the opening sets the stage for their complex relationship and hints at impending challenges rooted in both external conflicts and the intricacies of love.
