The Bailiff of Tewkesbury is a novel written by C. E. D. Phelps and first published in 1898. The story is set in the 15th century in the small town of Tewkesbury in England. The protagonist of the story is the bailiff of Tewkesbury, a man named Richard Lambert. He is a respected member of the community and is responsible for maintaining law and order in the town.The story begins with the arrival of a new lord, Sir John de Bury, who takes over the local manor. Sir John is a cruel and oppressive lord who imposes heavy taxes on the townspeople and treats them with disdain. Richard Lambert is forced to navigate the difficult relationship between the townspeople and the new lord, trying to keep the peace while also standing up for the rights of the people.As the story progresses, tensions rise between Sir John and the townspeople, and Richard Lambert finds himself caught in the middle. He must use all of his skills and knowledge to maintain order and prevent violence from breaking out. Along the way, he also finds himself falling in love with a local woman named Joan, who becomes his ally in his struggle against Sir John.The Bailiff of Tewkesbury is a gripping historical novel that explores themes of power, oppression, and resistance. It is a vivid portrait of life in medieval England and a compelling story of one man's fight for justice and freedom.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
