Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Deerbrook, Vol. 1 of 3: A Novel
Mr. Grey's house had probably been the object of this kind Of speculation to one or more persons, three times a week, ever since the stage-coach had taken to passing through Deerbrook. Deerbrook was a rather pretty village, dignified as it was with the woods of a fine park, which formed the back ground to its best points of view. Of this pretty village, Mr. Grey's was the prettiest house, stand ing in a field, round which the road swept. There were trees enough about it to shade without dark cuing it, and the garden and shrubbery behind were evidently of no contemptible extent. The tim ber and coal yards, and granaries which stretched down to the river side, were hidden by a nice management of the garden walls, and training of the shrubbery.
