His Friend and His Wife is a novel set in the Quaker Hill Colony in upstate New York in the early 19th century. The story follows the lives of two friends, John and Robert, and their relationships with the women they love. John is married to Mary, a devout Quaker, but his heart is drawn to the beautiful and spirited Alice. Robert, on the other hand, is in love with Mary's sister, Martha, but their relationship is complicated by Martha's past and her ongoing struggles with her faith. As the story unfolds, the characters grapple with their desires, their beliefs, and the expectations of their community. The novel explores themes of love, faith, and the tensions between individual desire and communal responsibility. Written by Cosmo Hamilton and first published in 1920, His Friend and His Wife is a classic work of American literature that offers a compelling portrait of life in a Quaker community.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
