Dear Mrs. Grey, Some years ago... I was struck with the difference between your family and those of others...I am the mother of six children, the eldest a boy of fourteen, and the youngest a baby. In deep humility, in bitter disappointment, my husband and myself have come to this conclusion: our boys and girls are exceptionally troublesome, or we are very bad managers. Our homelife I beset with disorder and discomfort, which is becoming intolerable... can you, and will you, undertake the task of spending a day or two, more or less, as you think best, in our family? Could this future generation be saved for Heaven? The Home at Greylock is a book for child rearing. Mrs. Grey's wisdom will be yours, and your family a bit of Heaven on earth.
