Summary

"Tish: The Chronicle of Her Escapades and Excursions" by Mary Roberts Rinehart is a tale about the hilarious misadventures of Tish Carberry, a lively middle-aged woman, and her two companions who charge headfirst into escapades that test friendships and challenge social expectations. The chronicles begin with a trip to Morris Valley, and quickly throws the characters into turmoil with the introduction of Bettina, a young, strong-willed woman put in Tish's charge, which leads to unexpected events involving stubborn opinions, a local fellow named Jasper, and the unconventional use of a racing car, hinting at the many humorous and possibly romantic situations that arise as Tish approaches life on her own terms.

About the Author

Mary Roberts Rinehart was an American writer, often called the American Agatha Christie. Rinehart published her first mystery novel The Circular Staircase in 1908, which introduced the "had I but known" narrative style. Rinehart is also considered the earliest known source of the phrase "the butler did it", in her novel The Door (1930), although the exact phrase does not appear in her work and the plot device had been used prior to that time. She also worked to tell the stories and experiences of front line soldiers during World War I, one of the first women to travel to the Belgian front lines.
