Probation: A Novel is a literary work written by Jessie Fothergill in 1880. The book tells the story of a young woman named Millicent Vane who is forced to leave her wealthy family home in England to live with her aunt in a small town. Millicent’s father has died, leaving her with a large inheritance, but her mother has remarried and her new stepfather is determined to get his hands on the money. Millicent’s aunt takes her in and introduces her to a group of local people, including a young doctor named Edward Ransome. As Millicent becomes more involved in the community, she begins to realize that her wealth and social status are not as important as she once thought. She also discovers a secret about her stepfather that could change everything. The novel explores themes of class, social expectations, and personal growth as Millicent navigates her new life and learns to trust her own instincts. With its engaging plot and well-drawn characters, Probation: A Novel is a timeless classic that continues to captivate readers today.Four Books In One.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
