AbstractHistoryArchive Description
Romance between an aristocratic Englishman returned from the dead in disguise to claim his inheritance from his extravagant family (armed with the mortgages on the estate) and the daughter of the local inkeeper. The young woman had loved the heir's younger brother 5 years before but he has spurned her when his mother had refused to accept her and now sought to marry an heiress. Challenges English class distinctions with values learnt in America, though not very realistically. (PB)
