Synopsis

From One Generation To Another is a novel by Henry Seton Merriman that tells the story of the aristocratic family of the Earls of St. Austell. The novel is set in the late 19th century and follows the lives of the family members as they navigate the changing social and political landscape of England. The story begins with the death of the 7th Earl of St. Austell, leaving his son, the 8th Earl, to inherit the family estate and title. The new Earl, who is portrayed as a weak and indecisive character, struggles to maintain the family's wealth and status in the face of economic and political upheaval. As the story unfolds, the reader is introduced to a cast of characters that includes the Earl's wife, Lady Maud, their children, and various members of the aristocracy and working class. Each character is given a unique voice and perspective, allowing the reader to see the world from multiple viewpoints. The novel explores themes of love, loyalty, duty, and social class, and is known for its vivid descriptions of the English countryside and its portrayal of the changing social and political landscape of the time. From One Generation To Another is a classic work of English literature that offers a fascinating glimpse into the world of the English aristocracy during a time of great change and upheaval.He was divided between two instincts. One side of his nature urged him to shriek like a woman. Had he followed the other, he would have rushed at this man, whom he had never seen before, seeking to do him bodily harm. He would not have paused to reason that in anything like a struggle he would stand no chance against the sinewy, dark-eyed soldier who stood watching him. For there are moments even in this age of self-suppression when we do not pause to think, when he who cannot swim will leap into deep water to save another.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
