Pride and Principle: Or The Captain of Elvedon School is a novel written by Mrs. H. B. Paull and first published in 1869. The story is set in the fictional Elvedon School, where the captain of the school, Charles Maitland, is a proud and ambitious young man who is determined to become a successful lawyer. However, his pride and ambition lead him to neglect his duties as captain and to treat his fellow students with disdain.When a new student, Arthur Selwyn, arrives at the school, he quickly becomes the target of Charles' bullying and taunts. But Arthur is not easily intimidated, and he challenges Charles to a series of intellectual and athletic competitions to prove his worth. As the two young men compete, they begin to develop a grudging respect for each other, and Charles learns the value of humility and kindness.Meanwhile, a subplot involving a love triangle between Charles, Arthur, and a young woman named Edith adds further tension to the story. As the competition between Charles and Arthur heats up, Edith finds herself torn between the two men, unsure of whom to choose.Pride and Principle is a classic tale of rivalry, redemption, and romance, set against the backdrop of a Victorian boarding school. With its vivid characters and engaging plot, this novel is sure to captivate readers of all ages.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
