Granby - T H Lister - Bog

This edition of Granby includes all three volumes in one book. When Caroline Jermyn's parents discover that she and Henry Granby, her friend since childhood, have begun to develop deeper feelings for each other they are appalled. For Granby has no title, fortune, or prospects to speak of-and they have a secret that makes so that she can not afford to marry as she pleases. Thinking they must not allow such an imprudent alliance they take steps to cut the ties of friendship and create distance between the two. But what other secrets, lies, and misunderstandings are conspiring to keep Caroline and Granby apart? In the fashionable circles of high society in London and in the countryside, in drawing rooms, at routs and balls, and the assembly rooms of Almack's, this couple, kept apart by secrets, lies and circumstances, but always with thoughts of each other, seek to be together again.
First published in 1826, Granby was fortunate enough to be reprinted on other occasions, and could perhaps be considered a classic in what is known as the Silver Fork genre that was popular in the latter part of the Regency era and focused on the lives of aristocratic and fashionable society.
