This book is a result of an effort made by us towards making a contribution to the preservation and repair of original classic literature. In an attempt to preserve, improve and recreate the original content, we have worked towards: 1. Type-setting & Reformatting: The complete work has been re-designed via professional layout, formatting and type-setting tools to re-create the same edition with rich typography, graphics, high quality images, and table elements, giving our readers the feel of holding a 'fresh and newly' reprinted and/or revised edition, as opposed to other scanned & printed (Optical Character Recognition - OCR) reproductions. 2. Correction of imperfections: As the work was re-created from the scratch, therefore, it was vetted to rectify certain conventional norms with regard to typographical mistakes, hyphenations, punctuations, blurred images, missing content/pages, and/or other related subject matters, upon our consideration. Every attempt was made to rectify the imperfections related to omitted constructs in the original edition via other references. However, a few of such imperfections which could not be rectified due to intentional\unintentional omission of content in the original edition, were inherited and preserved from the original work to maintain the authenticity and construct, relevant to the work. We believe that this work holds historical, cultural and/or intellectual importance in the literary works community, therefore despite the oddities, we accounted the work for print as a part of our continuing effort towards preservation of literary work and our contribution towards the development of the society as a whole, driven by our beliefs. We are grateful to our readers for putting their faith in us and accepting our imperfections with regard to preservation of the historical content. HAPPY READING!

The 1915 sequel to Jean Webster's 1912 book Daddy-Long-Legs is titled, Dear Enemy. In 1916, it was one of the ten best-selling books in the United States. The narrative is told through a collection of letters sent by Judy Abbott's classmate and best friend from Daddy-Long-Legs, Sallie McBride. Judy, Jervis Pendleton, Judy's husband and the head of the orphanage where Sallie is serving as interim superintendent until a new superintendent can be hired, Gordon Hallock, a wealthy Congressman and Sallie's later fiancé, and the orphanage's doctor, bitter Scotsman Robin Sandy MacRae, are among those who receive the letters. Sallie's decisions regarding what to recount to each of her correspondents reveal a lot about her relationships with them, and Webster effectively uses the epistolary framework. In the same way, as Daddy-Long-Legs followed Judy Abbott's development from a small child to an adult, Dear Enemy demonstrates Sallie McBride's development from a naive socialite to a wise and capable. It also tracks Sallie's interactions with affluent politician Gordon Hallock and the orphanage's doctor, Dr. Robin MacRae. Sallie's early reluctance to dedicate herself to her profession and her gradual awareness of how joyful the work makes her and how incomplete she'd feel without it have an impact on both relationships.

Dear Enemy, libro di Jean Webster, edito da StreetLib. Dear Judy: Your letter is here. I have read it twice, and with amazement. Do I understand that Jervis has given you, for a Christmas present, the making over of the John Grier Home into a model institution, and that you have chosen me to disburse the money? Me—I, Sallie McBride, the head of an orphan asylum! My poor people, have you lost your senses, or have you become addicted to the use of opium, and is this the raving of two fevered imaginations? I am exactly as well fitted to take care of one hundred children as to become the curator of a zoo.
