Publisher's Synopsis

The Disgrace To The Family: A Story Of Social Distinctions is a novel written by William Blanchard Jerrold and originally published in 1848. The book explores the societal norms and hierarchies of Victorian England, particularly the rigid class system that determined one's place in society. The story follows the life of a young woman named Rosamund, who is born into a wealthy and respected family. However, when she falls in love with a man from a lower social class, her family disapproves and she is forced to choose between her love and her family's expectations. As Rosamund navigates the complex social landscape of Victorian England, she faces numerous challenges and obstacles, including prejudice, discrimination, and the judgment of her peers. Along the way, she learns valuable lessons about love, loyalty, and the importance of staying true to oneself. The Disgrace To The Family is a thought-provoking and engaging novel that offers a fascinating glimpse into the social dynamics of Victorian England. With its richly drawn characters, vivid descriptions, and compelling storyline, it is a must-read for anyone interested in the history and culture of this fascinating era.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
