Caroline of Lichtfield is a novel written by Isabelle de Montolieu in 1786. The story follows the life of the titular character, Caroline, who is a young woman living in the 18th century. Caroline is a kind and virtuous person who is loved by everyone around her, including her parents and her fianc�����, Edward. However, her life takes a turn when she is kidnapped by a group of bandits who want to use her as a bargaining chip to get money from her father. Caroline is eventually rescued by a nobleman named Count d'Erfeuil, who falls in love with her and proposes marriage. Despite her feelings for Edward, Caroline accepts the Count's proposal out of gratitude for saving her life. However, their marriage is not a happy one, as the Count is controlling and jealous. Caroline eventually realizes that she cannot continue living in this unhappy situation and decides to run away. The novel explores themes of love, loyalty, and the struggle for independence in a society that values obedience and conformity. It also offers a glimpse into the social and cultural norms of 18th-century Europe. Overall, Caroline of Lichtfield is a captivating tale of a young woman's journey to find happiness and freedom in a world that seeks to control her.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
