About Mary Lee the Red Cross Girl -
Mary Lee is the sort of girl who is a gift to all her know her, who knows everything about eveything, impecable goodness of character, and tremendosuly hard working and organized. I thought going into this that there woudl be interesting bits about her work for the red cross; not so. She sells bonds (annoyingly). I also though there would be more about her training to be nurse, but although she does help out a doctor, we don't see what she actually does (except the bit where she picks up a sick baby and its fever miraculously drops, because that's the sort of person Mary Lee is. To add insult to an already not great book, there is a Native American character, and though the author goes on and on about what a noble, almost able to pass as white in his civilizedness this Indian is, it is awful rascist awfulness. And then Mary Lee gets rich from a silver mine.
