On Tybee Knoll: A Story of the Georgia Coast is a novel written by James Brendan Connolly and published in 1905. The story takes place in the late 1800s on Tybee Island, a small barrier island off the coast of Georgia. The novel follows the lives of two families, the O'Neills and the McGuires, who are neighbors on the island. The O'Neills are a wealthy family who own a large plantation on the island, while the McGuires are a poor family who work as fishermen.The novel explores the themes of class, race, and family dynamics. The O'Neills are portrayed as arrogant and entitled, while the McGuires are hardworking and humble. The novel also touches on the issue of racial inequality, as the O'Neills employ African American workers on their plantation and treat them poorly.The story centers around the romance between the O'Neill daughter, Kathleen, and the McGuire son, Michael. Their love is forbidden due to their families' social status, and they must navigate the challenges of their relationship in a society that values wealth and status above all else.Overall, On Tybee Knoll is a compelling story that offers insight into the social and cultural dynamics of the Georgia coast in the late 1800s. It is a must-read for anyone interested in Southern literature, historical fiction, or romance novels.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
