The fictional memoirs of Victorian-era housewife. Third in the Marshmallows Trilogy following  Annals of a Quiet Neighbourhood and  The Seaboard Parish. The Vicar's Daughter, the 1872 sequel to  The Seaboard Parish, follows the early married life of one of Harry Walton's (fictional narrator of  Annals of a Quiet Neighbourhood) daughters. This third book in the Marshmallows Trilogy is representative of the rising interest women were taking in Victorian society. Written in the first person in the fictional guise of female authorship, its characterization of MacDonald's friend and patron Lady Noel Byron is one of the noteworthy elements of the book.
