"Sally of Missouri" by Rose E. Young is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story unfolds in the backdrop of Missouri, focusing on the journey of Bruce Steering, a young man from New York, who comes to the state with both personal and business aspirations intertwined with the story of Miss Sally Madeira, the daughter of a prominent local figure. The narrative hints at themes of exploration, identity, and the contrasts between urban life and the rural wilderness of Missouri. The opening of the novel introduces Bruce Steering on an emotionally charged ride through the Ozarks, grappling with feelings of homesickness and the vastness of his new surroundings. As he travels towards the town of Canaan, he encounters a series of locals who hint at a fascinating community and connect him to Miss Sally Madeira, who serves as a focal point of admiration and intrigue. The chapter sets the stage for Bruce's evolution as he interacts with fascinating characters like Old Bernique and the energetic youth Piney, while drawing him deeper into the heart of Missouri and its promise of adventure, challenge, and potential romance.
