Dorothy Forster is a novel written by Walter Besant that tells the story of a young woman named Dorothy who is orphaned at a young age and taken in by her uncle and aunt. Dorothy grows up to be a beautiful and intelligent young woman, but her life takes a dramatic turn when she falls in love with a man who is not of her social class.As Dorothy struggles to navigate the complexities of love and society, she must also contend with the challenges of her own family history and the secrets that lie buried in her past. Along the way, she encounters a cast of fascinating characters, including a wealthy and powerful businessman, a scheming socialite, and a group of passionate political activists.Set against the backdrop of Victorian England, Dorothy Forster is a sweeping and romantic tale of love, betrayal, and redemption that will captivate readers from beginning to end. With its vivid descriptions of the era's social customs and political tensions, this novel is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of this fascinating period.Conduct so blameless, gravity so singular, wisdom so remarkable, never before seen in a man so young, could not fail to command, before long, the confidence of all. Mr. Forster entrusted his most private affairs to the counsel of Mr. Hilyard; madam carried her complaints to him as to one who would find redress; his pupil, who loved not books, obeyed him, was shamed out of his rusticity, and was kept by him from those follies by which young gentlemen in the country too often suffer in reputation and imperil their souls.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
