Excerpt from A Professional Rider
The Misses Walker kept a seminary for young ladies, situated in the High Street of the little market town of F oxington. The Sisters had started originally in a very modest way, but thanks to the excellent care they took of their pupils, combined with their own attainments and ladylike manners, the school flourished to such an extent that by degrees it became patronized by families of good standing and position in the County. Orphan girls were sent to the Misses Walker, since these excellent ladies bore a high character for the sound training given to those entrusted to their Charge. The girls varied in age from eleven to eighteen.

Margaret Hope, Alice Smithson, and Lizzie Holman face challenges both within and outside the seminary walls. The girls must navigate the often-difficult social circles of Victorian high society while simultaneously dealing with the complexities of adolescence.

The author effectively demonstrates the ways in which the expectations placed upon women during this period could be both stifling and damaging. The book is a fascinating study of an important period in history. It sheds light on the ways in which the values and beliefs of the Victorian era shaped the lives of women and girls.
