Summary "A Heroine of 1812: A Maryland Romance" by Amy Ella Blanchard is a historical novel written in the late 19th century. Set against the backdrop of the early months of the War of 1812, it explores themes of family, romance, and the social dynamics of the time. The narrative follows Lettice Hopkins, a spirited young woman who navigates her new life in Baltimore while grappling with the implications of war, her developing relationships, and her aspirations for independence. The opening of the story introduces Lettice, who anxiously awaits her uncle's return from the Boston port, where he has been gone for an unusually long time. The buzz of the city is palpable as residents discuss worries about British aggression and the potential for war. Lettice's interactions reveal her gentle nature and concern for others, particularly evident in her sympathy for Mrs. Flynn, the distressed mother of a captured sailor. As the narrative unfolds, a bright yet anxious atmosphere prevails, hinting at the challenges and changes that Lettice will face amid the revolutionary fervor in Maryland.
