Helbeck of Bannisdale V2 is a novel by Mrs. Humphry Ward, originally published in 1898. The story follows the life of Laura Fountain, a young woman who is torn between her love for the Catholic faith and her loyalty to her family's Protestant beliefs. Laura's journey takes her to the estate of Helbeck, where she falls in love with the owner, Alan Helbeck, a devout Catholic who is struggling to maintain his faith in the face of societal pressures. As their romance blossoms, Laura must confront her own beliefs and decide whether to follow her heart or stay true to her family's traditions. The novel explores themes of religion, love, and societal expectations in a time of great change and upheaval. Ward's vivid descriptions of the English countryside and her nuanced portrayal of complex characters make Helbeck of Bannisdale V2 a compelling read for fans of historical fiction and romantic literature.Suddenly she put out her hand restlessly to pluck at the hedge beside her. She had been stung by the memory of herself--under the Squire's window, in the dawn. She saw herself--helpless, and asleep, the tired truant come back to the feet of her master. When he found her so, what could he do but pity her?--be moved, perhaps beyond bounds, by the goodness of a generous nature?This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
