The Gold Of Chickaree
By S & A Warner
Published by James Nisbet & Co Limited: London c1885

" The Gold of Chickaree by Susan and Anna Warner is a sequel to their earlier novel The Hills of the Shatemuc, continuing the story of Winifred "Winnie" Houghton as she navigates questions of wealth, faith, and personal identity. Set in the picturesque region of the Hudson River Valley, the novel explores the changes in Winnie's life after coming into a substantial inheritance. Despite the allure of riches, Winnie remains deeply introspective, grappling with how best to use her newfound wealth in a way that aligns with her Christian convictions and moral principles.

The novel emphasizes themes of stewardship, self-denial, and spiritual integrity, presenting wealth not as a blessing in itself but as a test of character. The Warner sisters, known for their religiously grounded fiction, use Winnie's choices and struggles to convey broader messages about humility, duty, and the fleeting nature of worldly pleasures. Through thoughtful dialogue and reflective narrative, The Gold of Chickaree challenges readers—especially young women—to consider how true value lies not in material possessions but in a life guided by faith and purpose."
