Synopsis

""A Duke and His Double"" is a novel written by Edward Sims Van Zile and first published in 1903. The story revolves around a young American man named John Rawnley, who bears a striking resemblance to the Duke of Balmoral, a wealthy and powerful member of the British aristocracy. When the Duke suddenly dies, John is recruited by the Duke's closest advisors to take his place and assume all of his responsibilities. John is reluctant at first, but eventually agrees to take on the role of the Duke's double, in order to protect the Duke's family and estate from scheming relatives who are after his fortune. As John navigates through the complex and unfamiliar world of British high society, he must learn to behave like a true aristocrat, while also keeping his true identity a secret. The novel is a thrilling tale of mistaken identity, romance, and intrigue, set against the backdrop of turn-of-the-century England. It offers a fascinating look into the lives of the British upper class, and explores themes of loyalty, honor, and the lengths to which people will go to protect those they love. ""A Duke and His Double"" is a classic work of fiction that continues to captivate readers over a century after its initial publication.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
