On Newfound River is a novel written by Thomas Nelson Page and published in 1906. The story is set in rural Virginia during the late 19th century and follows the lives of two families, the Blands and the Dabneys, who are neighbors living along the Newfound River. The Blands are a wealthy family who own a large plantation and have a reputation for being proud and haughty. The Dabneys, on the other hand, are a poor but proud family who work hard to make a living off their small farm.The novel explores the complex relationships between these two families and the tensions that arise as a result of their different social statuses. The story is told from the perspective of several different characters, including the Bland and Dabney children, and offers a unique insight into the lives of people living in rural Virginia during this time period.Throughout the novel, Page explores themes of race, class, and family dynamics, highlighting the struggles and triumphs of both the Blands and the Dabneys. He also paints a vivid picture of the natural beauty of the Newfound River and the surrounding countryside, making the setting an integral part of the story.Overall, On Newfound River is a thought-provoking and engaging novel that offers a glimpse into a bygone era and the lives of people who lived during a time of great change and upheaval in American history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
