Publisher's Synopsis

Merton: Or Three's Many A Slip Twixt The Cup And The Lip is a novel written by Theodore Edward Hook in 1800. The book follows the story of a young man named Merton who is forced to leave his home and family due to a scandal. He travels to London where he becomes involved in a series of misadventures and falls in love with a young woman named Caroline. However, their relationship is threatened by Merton's past and the machinations of Caroline's scheming father. The novel is a satirical look at the societal conventions of the time and explores themes of love, class, and morality. It is considered one of Hook's most popular works and has been praised for its wit and humor.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
