The story revolves around a young English girl named Margaret Dawson who is sent to stay with her German relatives in the town of Heppenheim for six weeks. Margaret is initially excited about the prospect of exploring a new country and culture, but soon finds herself struggling to adapt to the strict and unfamiliar customs of her relatives. She also becomes entangled in a romantic relationship with a young German man, Ernst, which is complicated by their cultural differences and the disapproval of Margaret's family. As Margaret navigates her way through this new environment, she learns valuable lessons about love, family, and the importance of understanding and respecting different cultures. The novel is a charming and insightful exploration of cross-cultural relationships and the challenges of adapting to new environments.That has never been our way in Germany. There are people employed by the Government to examine the vines, and report when the grapes are ripe. It is necessary to make laws about it; for, as you must have seen, there is nothing but the fear of-the law to protect our vineyards and fruit-trees; there are no enclosures along the Berg-Strasse, as you tell me you have in England; but, as people are only allowed to go into the vineyards on stated days.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
