Two Ways to Wedlock is a novella written by Sarah Stickney Ellis in 1859. The story follows the lives of two sisters, Mary and Lucy, who have very different views on marriage. Mary, the elder sister, is practical and believes in marrying for financial security, while Lucy is more idealistic and hopes to find love in her marriage. As the sisters navigate their romantic pursuits, they encounter various obstacles and challenges, including societal expectations and the pressures of their respective suitors. Mary ultimately marries a wealthy man, but finds herself unhappy and unfulfilled, while Lucy's pursuit of love leads her to a more satisfying and fulfilling marriage.The novella explores themes of love, marriage, societal expectations, and the role of women in Victorian society. It provides a glimpse into the attitudes and values of the era, and offers a commentary on the complexities and challenges of romantic relationships.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
