A Cast of the Dice is a novel written by Julian Walters and originally published in 1872. The book is set in 19th century England and follows the story of two brothers, Frank and George, who come from a wealthy family. Frank is a gambler and spends most of his time at the casino, while George is a responsible businessman who tries to keep his brother out of trouble.The novel explores themes of greed, addiction, and the consequences of reckless behavior. As Frank's gambling addiction spirals out of control, he becomes increasingly desperate and resorts to unethical means to fund his habit. Meanwhile, George struggles to balance his loyalty to his brother with his own sense of morality.The book also touches on social issues of the time, such as class inequality and the role of women in society. The female characters in the novel are portrayed as strong and independent, challenging the traditional gender roles of the era.Overall, A Cast of the Dice is a gripping tale of family drama and moral dilemmas, set against the backdrop of Victorian England.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
