The Thrales of Redlynch is a novel written by Nehemiah Curnock and published in 1889. The story is set in the mid-19th century and revolves around the Thrale family, who live in the small village of Redlynch in England. The patriarch of the family, John Thrale, is a successful businessman who has made his fortune through his ironworks. He is a stern and domineering man who expects his family to obey his every command.The novel follows the lives of John Thrale's children, particularly his two sons, George and Arthur. George is the eldest and is expected to take over the family business, but he is not interested in it and dreams of becoming a writer. Arthur, on the other hand, is the black sheep of the family and has been disowned by his father. He lives a wild and reckless life, causing scandal wherever he goes.As the story progresses, the Thrale family is hit by a series of tragedies, including the death of John Thrale's wife and the bankruptcy of the ironworks. The family's fortunes decline, and they are forced to sell their home and move to a smaller house in the village. George struggles to make a name for himself as a writer, while Arthur continues to cause trouble.Despite their troubles, the Thrale family remains close-knit and supportive of each other. The novel explores themes of family, love, ambition, and the struggle between duty and personal desires. It is a poignant and realistic portrayal of life in the Victorian era, and a testament to the enduring power of family bonds.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
