''The Flower of the Chapdelaines'' is a novel written by George Washington Cable. The story is set in Louisiana in the late 1800s and revolves around the Chapdelaine family, who are struggling to maintain their plantation and way of life in the face of economic and social challenges. The novel follows the life of young Melicent Chapdelaine, who becomes the center of a love triangle between two men, one a wealthy businessman and the other a poor but noble farmer. As Melicent navigates her romantic relationships, she also grapples with the changing times and the decline of the plantation system in the South. The novel explores themes of love, family, tradition, and the struggle to adapt to a rapidly changing world.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
