American-born Katharine and her elderly Aunt Celia are on a tour of England to see it's famous cathedral churches. While visiting the Winchester Cathedral, an architect (Jack Copley) sees the two ladies and is smitten with the lovely Katharine. Luckily for Jack, Katharine drops a copy of their itinerary and he is able to follow the pair from town to town in hopes of getting to know Katharine. It's amazing the lengths Jack is willing to go to in order to be with her.

First published in 1893, this is a wonderful short story. Each chapter is titled "She" or "He" depending on whose perspective it is. There is formatting trouble, however. The preface is right aligned and the main story centered with odd markings for apostrophes and page numbers. If that doesn't bother you, go ahead and read this delightful tale.

Kate Douglas Wiggin (September 28, 1856 – August 24, 1923) was an American educator and author of children's stories, most notably the classic children's novel Rebecca of Sunnybrook Farm. She started the first free kindergarten in San Francisco in 1878 (the Silver Street Free Kindergarten). With her sister during the 1880s, she also established a training school for kindergarten teachers. Kate Wiggin devoted her adult life to the welfare of children in an era when children were commonly thought of as cheap labour.
