Red Ryvington is a novel written by William Bury Westall and published in 1885. The story is set in the late 18th century in the English countryside and follows the life of the main character, Redmond Ryvington, a young man who inherits his family estate after the death of his father. Redmond is a passionate and impulsive character who struggles to adapt to his new responsibilities as a landowner. He falls in love with the beautiful and independent Lady Sybil Lacy, but their love is complicated by their different social statuses and the disapproval of Lady Sybil's family. The novel is a tale of love, ambition, and betrayal, as Redmond's desire for power and wealth leads him to make questionable decisions and alliances. He becomes involved in a political conspiracy that threatens to destroy his reputation and his relationship with Lady Sybil. The story is also a reflection on the changing times in England, as the Industrial Revolution brings new challenges and opportunities for the country's aristocracy. The characters grapple with questions of tradition, progress, and social class, as they navigate their way through a rapidly changing world. Overall, Red Ryvington is a compelling historical novel that offers a vivid portrait of life in 18th-century England, with complex characters and a gripping plot that will keep readers engaged until the very end.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
