George Barr McCutcheon was a bestselling American novelist at the turn of the twentieth century, famous for his romantic adventure Graustark. The Daughter of Anderson Crow is a lighter comic work featuring the bumbling small-town marshal Anderson Crow — a popular recurring character — as he investigates a local mystery with more bluster than skill.
Warm-hearted and gently funny, the novel reflects the tradition of American small-town humor fiction popular in the late nineteenth century. Download the free public-domain EPUB at Better Gutenberg.
