Chocorua's Tenants is a novel written by Frank Bolles and first published in 1895. The story is set in the White Mountains of New Hampshire and follows the lives of a group of tenants who live on the Chocorua estate. The main character is a young woman named Hilda, who is the daughter of the estate's owner. She is a strong-willed and independent woman who is determined to make her own way in the world, despite the expectations of her father and society. The novel explores themes of love, class, and the struggle for independence. Hilda falls in love with one of the tenants, a young man named Jack, but their relationship is complicated by their differing social status. Jack is a hardworking farmer who is determined to improve his lot in life, while Hilda is a wealthy heiress who has never had to work for anything. As the story unfolds, the tenants on the estate face a number of challenges, including harsh weather, financial difficulties, and personal conflicts. Through it all, Hilda and Jack must navigate their own feelings for each other and the expectations of those around them.
