Tumblefold is a novel written by Joseph Whittaker and published in 1919. The story is set in a small English village called Tumblefold, where the lives of the villagers are disrupted by the arrival of a mysterious stranger named John Dene. Dene is a wealthy businessman who has come to Tumblefold to build a factory, but his plans are met with resistance from the locals who fear the impact it will have on their way of life.As the story unfolds, we learn more about the characters who inhabit Tumblefold, including the village doctor, the local squire, and a young woman named Mary who becomes romantically involved with Dene. The novel explores themes of class, ambition, and the clash between tradition and progress.Throughout the book, Whittaker paints a vivid picture of rural life in early 20th century England, capturing the dialects, customs, and social dynamics of the time. Tumblefold is a charming and engaging novel that offers a glimpse into a bygone era and the challenges faced by those who dared to challenge the status quo.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
