Work Description

This is a thrilling story of life in England during the seventeenth century—an England of country fairs and fox hunts—an England of want and distress for the poor, of color and gaiety for the Dukes and Lords.

Randall Winford returns to Menthorpe Grange from the colony of Virginia across the Atlantic—returns with the new world viewpoint of helping the poor and oppressed—and help the oppressed he does in spite of his uncle, Squire Tobias, and Lord Tarlington.

Around old Menthorpe Grange is woven a tale of adventure and danger that holds one spellbound until the very last page.

Peggy Paver Beck’s strong illustrations in the block print style add a final touch of reality and vividness to a book which is filled with action.--Publisher
