A Lover’s Quarrel V1: Or The County Ball is a novel written by Harriet Maria Gordon Smythies and originally published in 1858. The story revolves around the romantic entanglements of a group of young people in a small English town. The main character, Mary Lennox, is torn between her love for two men, the dashing Captain Edward Granville and the kind-hearted Mr. George Selby. As Mary tries to navigate her feelings and decide which man to choose, she must also contend with the jealousy and scheming of other characters, including the conniving Mrs. Pynsent and the manipulative Miss Fanny. The novel is set against the backdrop of a county ball, where the characters come together and tensions come to a head. A Lover’s Quarrel V1 is a classic example of Victorian-era romance, with its focus on love, duty, and social norms. It offers a glimpse into the complex social dynamics of the time and the struggles faced by young women in particular as they tried to find their place in society.In Three Volumes.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
