Old Valentines A Love Story

"Old Valentines" by Munson Aldrich Havens is a poignant story set in the early 1900s, following the life of Phyllis Oglebay, the orphaned daughter of a celebrated actress. After the heart-wrenching loss of her parents, Phyllis’s life takes a turn as she comes under the guardianship of her strict uncle, Sir Peter Oglebay. As she grows, Phyllis finds herself drawn to John Landless, a poet with dreams as big as her own, their budding romance challenged by her uncle's disapproval and the societal norms of the time. The story unfolds as Phyllis balances the joy of young love and the burden of her family's past, creating an engaging tale of hope, longing, and the pursuit of happiness against the odds.
