Seasoned Timber by Dorothy Canfield Fisher

In addition to being a respected author, Fisher was also an educational reformer, a social activist, and for 25 years a member of the Book-of-the-Month Club selection committee. First published in 1939, this was the last novel Fisher wrote about her native Vermont. It follows the difficulties faced by Clifford Academy headmaster T.C. Hulme after the academy is willed $1 million with the stipulation that Jews, girls, and locals must be squeezed out.
