Ovington's Bank is a forgotten masterpiece from peerless story-teller Stanley Weyman who was once as popular as Dickens, Kipling and Robert Louis Stevenson.Ovington's Bank was written at the height of Weyman's powers, and is considered the finest of his 24 novels.Set in 1825, the novel's themes are as relevant today as then.
