The Soldier’s Orphan, written by a Clergyman of the Church of England and published in 1826, tells the story of Maria West, a young girl who becomes an orphan after her father, a soldier, dies in battle. The book follows Maria’s journey as she is taken in by her father’s comrades and eventually sent to live with her aunt and uncle in London. Along the way, Maria faces many challenges and obstacles, including poverty, illness, and the cruelty of others. However, she perseveres through her faith in God and the kindness of those around her. The book is both interesting and instructive, providing a glimpse into the life of a soldier’s family during the early 19th century and teaching valuable lessons about resilience, kindness, and the power of faith.Intended As A Companion To The History Of Susan Grey.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
