About this listen

 With her husband Brenton cruelly incapacitated by a stroke, Philadelphia Gordon continues to defy tradition by becoming first mate and skipper of the paddle steamer Philadelphia. Rising to this new challenge, Delie is happy with her activity-filled days, and with a growing awareness of the beauty of the river and its slowly paced life, she begins to find some contentment. However, though espousing the equality of the sexes, Delie is all woman and is to be sorely tempted by the men who enter her life. She engages in an affair with the debonair Alastaire Raeburn and while spending a romantic week with him, Brenton succumbs to a further stroke and dies. Consumed with guilt, this is to be Delie's darkest hour and she must once again gather all her strength in overcoming this further tragedy in her life.©1959, 1962 Nancy Cato (P)2015 Bolinda Publishing Contemporary Fiction Genre Fiction
