Description: From the publisher's blurb: ''The Lord of the Rushie River, first published in 1938, was inspired by a dream Miss Barker had as a child of flying on a swan's back. The delightful story of how the young girl, Susan, is rescued by swans and looked after by them while her father is away at sea will be remembered with affection by any who have read it. The sequel in which the Lord of the Rushie River's son, Simon, determines to prove his worth to his family by flying away from Rushiebanks to see the world and returning a famous swan, was only discovered some years after Cicely Mary Barker's death. Cicely Mary Barker's watercolour paintings illustrate both stories which are published together for the first time in this edition.''
