About Pat of Silver Bush

Pat of Silver Bush follows Patricia Gardiner, a girl whose fierce devotion to her home makes her reluctant to accept any kind of change, from the ages of six to eighteen; its sequel, Mistress Pat: A Novel of Silver Bush (1935), continues the story of Pat into her early thirties.

“God gave all men all earth to love
