Mrs Ada Harris,the cheerful,courageous cockney charwoman,won the hearts of hundreds of thousands of readers when Paul Gallico told the story of her visit to Paris,her acquisition of a Dior dress and a wealth of new friends.
Now Mrs Harris goes to the United States. Undaunted by the prospect of travel,new ways,new faces and new places,she sets off gaily for the New World with her faithful but timid friend,Mts Violet Butterfield. Since Mrs Harris has a heart as generous as London itself,she soon finds heself committed to finding the real father of a maltreated waif.Her search brings her into touch with every kind of American citizen, creates untold diplomatic complications and brings her both serious trouble and stout allies.
A highly collected and prolific author, and a typical example in his comedic style and will be an important and welcome addition to the Gallico canon.
