""St. George and St. Michael V2"" is a novel written by George MacDonald. It is a historical fiction set during the English Civil War in the mid-17th century. The story revolves around two families, the Forsters and the Langfords, who are divided by their loyalties to the Royalists or the Parliamentarians. The main characters are Humphrey and Dorothy Forster and Cyril and Amabel Langford. The novel follows their lives as they navigate through the war, love, and family secrets. The title of the book refers to the two patron saints of England, St. George and St. Michael, who symbolize bravery and protection. The novel explores themes of loyalty, honor, forgiveness, and the consequences of war. It is a classic work of literature that has been praised for its vivid characters and historical accuracy.But Dorothy was not running after the fool, or making for any door but that at the bottom of the library tower; for the first terror that crossed her mind was the possible fate of Dick, and the first comfort that followed, the thought of Marquis; so she was running straight for the stable-yard, where the dogs, to judge by the way they tore their throats with barking, seemed frantic with rage.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
