The Butterflies: A Comedy In Three Acts is a play written by Henry Guy Carleton and first published in 1908. The play is a lighthearted comedy that follows the story of a wealthy family in New York City. The family's daughter, Peggy, is engaged to a man named Jack, but she is also courted by another man named Tony. Peggy's parents, Mr. and Mrs. Van Cortlandt, are concerned about her choice of suitors and try to intervene in her love life. Meanwhile, Peggy's sister, Helen, is secretly in love with Tony's brother, Billy. The play is filled with witty dialogue, mistaken identities, and romantic entanglements. It explores themes of love, family, and social status in early 20th century America. The Butterflies: A Comedy In Three Acts is a classic example of a romantic comedy and has been performed on stage numerous times since its original publication.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
