Breed In The Bone is a novel written by Thomas Nelson Page and published in 1908. The story is set in Virginia during the late 1800s and follows the life of John Mayrant, a young man from a wealthy family who falls in love with a beautiful woman named Hortense Rieppe. However, their love is complicated by the fact that Hortense is from a family of French Creole descent and therefore considered to be of a lower social class than John.As John struggles with his feelings for Hortense and the expectations of his family, he also becomes embroiled in a feud between two prominent families in the town. This feud ultimately leads to violence and tragedy, forcing John to confront the harsh realities of his society and his own prejudices.Throughout the novel, Page explores themes of love, class, race, and honor, providing a vivid portrayal of the social and cultural dynamics of the American South in the late 19th century. With its richly drawn characters and intricate plot, Breed In The Bone is a compelling and thought-provoking work of historical fiction.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
