Description

Set against a backdrop of life on a medieval manor, a 14-year-old girl feels trapped because her father is determined to marry her off to a rich man. By wit, trickery, and luck, she manages to send several would-be husbands packing. Then comes a man from the north--the oldest, the ugliest, and the richest. Newbery Medal winner, ALA 1995 Best Books of 1995, ALA 1995 Best Books for Young Adults.
