In this third volume about Charlotte, readers follow her family from France to New York where their circle of artist friends widens to include Childe Hassam and William Merritt Chase. The book is presented as Charlotte's 1894 journal-sketchbook, complete with handwriting font and reproductions of artwork. Knight teaches readers about art and artists with a light touch and satisfying specificity.
