Slaves To Duty is a novel written by John Badcock Jr. and published in 1894. The book explores the themes of duty, honor, and sacrifice in the context of Victorian society. The story follows the lives of two brothers, Charles and Arthur, who are raised in a strict household that places a high value on duty and obedience. Charles, the older brother, becomes a successful lawyer and is seen as a model of duty and responsibility. Arthur, on the other hand, rebels against the strict rules of his upbringing and becomes a painter, much to the disapproval of his family. As the story unfolds, both brothers face challenges that test their sense of duty and honor. Charles is forced to choose between his duty to his family and his duty to uphold the law, while Arthur must confront the consequences of his choices and learn to accept the responsibilities of adulthood. Slaves To Duty is a thought-provoking novel that offers a glimpse into the values and beliefs of Victorian society, and explores the timeless themes of duty and sacrifice that continue to resonate with readers today.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
